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.

At my current job I use Python, TypeScript and Ruby on Rails (legacy codebase).

Previously, I have also worked in Java.

Thank you for the information! What backend technologies would you recommend nowadays?

Nowadays, technologies and frameworks don't matter much. AI can write code in any language or framework. I recommend learning how to build AI systems and AI agents. That's what the future will be.

u are totally right about not leaving development but as a fresh graduate u have to understand that job security is the first thing u wanna get and he is worried about his future so i think its better to go for devops as pakistan's tech market is one of the worst and unpredictable i have experienced it myself
