Auto rolling back on bad metrics post deployment is something that doesn't require AI. Not in a "you can do it with a lot of work and a huge team" sense, but in a "take a few days to review your metrics and then implement it in a day".

Yeah for context I mean doing slow rollouts and checking error rates on a new deployment is a given. That's not AI.

But for an alert for a deployment that has been out for a while there is a bit of a decision to be made as whether to roll back, scale up etc. sometimes rolling back achieves nothing other than increasing the delta again when you roll forward and delaying stuff.
