Yes, within limits. Small, reversible failures, retries, credential refreshes, quarantining a bad record for replay, are safe to automate. Anything that changes data or crosses a system boundary should be understood first and, until confidence is earned, approved by a person. The risk isn’t the loud failure; it’s a system that quietly auto-fixes while a real problem compounds behind a green dashboard. Gartner notes fully autonomous remediation remains aspirational, so automate the repair only once the understanding is fast and honest.
