I'm trying to figure out which AI tool is best for my daily tasks as a DevOps or Platform Engineer. I've been using Gemini, but it seems to perform worse than before. I also have access to ChatGPT and Claude 4.5, but I haven't used Claude yet. Any recommendations on which AI I should go for?

Be cautious with Claude CLI; it can get pricey, but it’s capable of doing a lot of heavy lifting if you know how to use it properly.
If you're doing a lot of AWS work, I’d recommend checking out Amazon's Q developer. It’s pretty aligned with the workload in AWS/EKS and might suit your needs better.
For coding specifically, I find Codex 5.3 to be the best option out there right now. Definitely worth a try!
Honestly, none of them are perfect right now. It really depends on your needs, but I’ve heard a lot of good things about Claude. It seems to be gaining popularity for its clarity in coding tasks.
I’ve tried Claude after testing others, and I prefer it. It produces cleaner and more concise code than the rest.
