With Microsoft (Behind GitHub) going full AI mode, expected things to get worse.

I worked for one of the largest company in my country, they had "catch-up" with GitHub and it is not longer about GitHub as you folks are used to but AI aka CoPilot.

We are seeing major techs such as but not limited to Google, AWS and Azure going under after making public that their code is 30% AI generated (Google).

Even Xbox(Microsoft) and its gaming studio got destroyed (COD BO7) for heavily dependency on AI.

Don't you find it coincidence all of these system outage worldwide happening right after they proudly shared heavily dependency on AI??

Companies aren't using AI/ML to improve processes but to replace people, full stop. The AI stock market is having a massive meltdown as we speak with indications that the AI bubble went live.

If you as a company wanna keep your productivity at 99.99% from now on:

* GitLab: Self-hosted GitLab/runners * Datacenter: AWS/GCP/Azure is no longer a safe option or cheaper, we have data center companies such as Equinix which have a massive backup plan in place. I have visited one, they are prepared for a nuclear war and I am not even being dramatic. If I was starting a new company in 2025, I would go back to datacenter over AWS/GCP/Azure * Self-host everything you can, and no, it does not require 5 days in the office to manage all of that.

I didn't see a case made for self-hosting as the better option, instead I see that proposition being assumed true. Why would it be better for my company to roll its own CI/CD?

I worked at a bank that self-hosted GitLab/runners.

As the AI bubble goes sideways, you don't know how your company data is being held, CoPilot uses GitHub to train its AI for instance. Yes, the big company I work for had a clause to forbids GitHub from using the company's repo from AI training.

How many companies can afford having a dedicated GitHub team to speak to?? How many companies read the contracts or have any saying??

Not many really.

Yeah sure, cloud is easier, you just pay the bills, but at what cost??
