Not an org where everyone uses the tech to such a degree: also were late adopters of Docker for example, in large part got around to it due to my initiative (100-200 people org, so small). But personally: yes and to an immense degree. The excuse “we don’t have the time for this” has pretty much evaporated when it comes to me. I do more than colleagues do and have gotten enough automation working that the AI will be made to iterate and fix its code to my desires before I ever see a line of it. I’ve added tests to entire systems thanks to it, fixed bugs across the codebase, added a bunch of additional quality control scripts and tools, improved CI, built and shipped not only entire features but systems. I can now work on about 3 projects in parallel, even if it can be super tiring. But hey, I’m also working more on side projects outside of work and nice utilities I never had time for. I don’t really build in public sadly, but it very much is a force multiplier and makes me hate my job less sometimes (everyone has a horrible brownfield codebase or two).
