Those same people are utterly incapable of reading logs. I’ve had devs send me error messages that say precisely what the problem is, and yet they’re asking me what to do. The form of this that bothers me the most is in infra (the space I work in). K8s is challenging when things go sideways, because it’s a lot of abstractions. It’s far more difficult when you don’t understand how the components underpinning it work, or even basic Linux administration. So there are now a ton of bullshit AI products that are just shipping return codes and error logs out to OpenAI, and sending it back rephrased, with emoji. I know this is gatekeeping, and I do not care: if you can’t run a K8s cluster without an AI tool, you are not qualified to run a K8s cluster. I’m not saying don’t try it; quite the opposite: try it on your own, without AI help, and learn by reading docs and making mistakes (ideally not in prod).
