Warp, the AI terminal for DevOps, tested on real tasks
Warp was tested not on a demo but on live DevOps tasks: cloning a repository, a Flask service, Docker/Podman, server setup and auto-deployment. The terminal handled them almost without errors, suggested a .gitignore on its own and refused to let the author delete the server. But the author disliked the sluggish interface and the odd copy-paste behavior, and above all the main side effect: the more routine work the AI takes over, the faster your own skills erode.
