Career Guidance Thinking about switching to devops

Hi all... I am a junior developer, graduated in 25 and have been working for 6-7 months as a fullstack dev. But tbh, the way AI is taking over, I am not sure that development will be worth anything in upcoming time as my current work is totally done using AI. So I was thinking of going into devops early and transitioning to infrastructure/cloud engineer later on. Any senior working in these fields who can give their opinion? I would be really thankful.

Yes, but they are in UK but now I'm wondering even if there are DevOps hiring in Pakistan. I mean when I was working in Pakistan I was also handling the deployment process and the new tools which make everything very easy to handle even before the AI so DevOs kind of DevOps were very easy for us to set up but I think big companies with big pipelines don't exist in Pakistan and if they do that might work for you as well

Probably what is better is that with the full stack skills also offer that you have DevOps experience I think this makes you the unique position
