There's a line from The Who that keeps echoing in my head these days: 'Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.' It's oddly fitting for the current state of DevOps - especially when we look at how artificial intelligence (AI) is being harnessed to reimagine, reengineer, and, in some ways, just refine the same core challenges that have plagued developers and DevOps engineers for years.

The evolution of CI/CD in Enterprise DevOps has moved from simple pipelines to more sophisticated platforms. Initially, CI/CD focused on automating the build, test and deployment phases of software development using pipelines.

As AI systems evolve from support tools to autonomous infrastructure layers, platform engineering is undergoing a fundamental transformation.
