Most DevOps teams are starting to use AI for coding, Terraform, CI/CD, scripts, and PR reviews.
But the real problem is not “can AI generate code?”
The real problem is:
- who reviews the output?
- what guardrails does the repo give the AI?
- how do you stop AI from creating insecure Terraform?
- how do you keep CI/CD changes reviewable?
- how do you prevent copy-paste automation from becoming production risk?
I built a practical AI Coding / DevOps workflow around this idea:
AI should speed up engineering work, but it should not bypass engineering judgment.
The workflow I recommend:
1. Give AI clear repo instructions
2. Use a PR review checklist
3. Review Terraform/IaC for security and cost risk
4. Add CI/CD guardrails before merge
5. Keep human approval for anything production-facing
If you are using ChatGPT, Cursor, Copilot, Claude, or any AI coding tool for cloud/devops work, this is the part most teams skip.
I also made a free starter kit for IT/cloud people who want a safer AI workflow:
And for developers / DevOps engineers, I packaged the full AI Coding Bundle here:
Question for the group:
Where are you already using AI in your workflow?
- Terraform / IaC
- CI/CD
- scripts
- PR reviews
- incident notes
- documentation
- something else?
