I was – and I still am – a cynic when it comes to how AI will affect software development (whole “it’s an amplifier” argument + unchanged incentives). Still, after finding a flow which fits my brain, I cannot imagine working without it.

Doing TDD when “devopsing” is hard, so the default observed in the wild was “get it right and pray we do not need to touch it” most of the time. Which often meant that Infrastructure-As-Code made things simpler, but reproducibility was not something you really wanted to depend on.
