As an SRE I can tell you AI can't do everything. I have done a little software development, even AI can't do everything. What we are likely to see is operational engineering become the consolidated role between the two. Knows enough about software development and knows enough about site reliability... blamo operational engineer.
"As an SRE I can tell you AI can't do everything."
That's what they used to say about software engineering and yet this is becoming less and less obvious as capabilities increase.
There are no hiding places for any of us.
Paraphrase: "As an SRE I can tell you that the undetermined and unknowable potential of AI definitely won't involve my job being replaced."
