This was from August 2025…
Amazon cloud chief says replacing junior employees with AI is ‘one of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard’

I wonder if those DevOps cost $72M/h.
Otherwise I have an idea that might save AWS some money.
Someone should tell them to set up alerts in their dashboard 😤
I blame rufus
Rufus would probably tell you there is no such thing as Rufus.
Rufus is negative Alpharius then?
I don’t know what that is.
I weep for ye then. Looketh thee google
It reports that the AI detects and fixes IAM permission errors instantly, rebuilds broken VPC or subnet configs, and rolls back failed Lambda deployments without human input
I’m sorry but if the majority of your DevOps work was that then you deserved to get replaced with AI.
I was in DevOps, didn’t hardly touch AWS, but I can’t see how AI could possibly judge IAM permission errors.
And this is just the first fallout. We’re going to end up with a dearth of advanced skills for possibly decades if there aren’t places for people starting off to gain experience. We won’t get the level of creative innovation we should expect, but at least we won’t be able to fix things that break, either.
