I'm in a similar boat. The challenges I run into at work are often resultant of the weird infrastructure we use in our datacenters and our weird legacy software stacks, so there's no reason to believe AI will have anything in its training set that will help me. People don't realize that AI is only as good as their problem is ubiquitous. If you spend your time working on weird legacy systems, it can't possibly predict all the weird needles you need to thread when developing solutions.
