Better use case: an AI chatbot trained on your AWS setup, so it can tell you exactly where that damn misplaced config lives

"Hey Q, please tell me which one of the 10,000 IAM policies I fucked up with Terraform after running apply and not reading it."

FWIW, Amazon recently also announced AI powered code remediation (for Terraform and CloudFormation among other languages) and IaC support with CodeWhisperer as well: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/amazon-codewhisperer-offers...

when i logged in to my aws panel this morning, Q popped up with example prompts that make it look like this is what it's supposed to do: https://imgur.com/a/PXGAv27

but when i tried "why can't i ssh into my instance named test-runner", it couldn't tell me the instance is stopped. all it can do is give me a link to the reachability analyzer.

Azure has a much better approach to organizing things on their website without inventing meaningless words and abbreviations like EC2.

If you think the names on AWS are bad, check the icons out!

That actually started appearing on the AWS console for me today. Annoyingly I couldn't turn it off though, as the settings page to do so is locked for my corporate account, and it opened itself back up every time I navigated.

Better yet, a chatbot that helps amazon solve the many many race conditions it suffers from.
