## AI overview

This guide distinguishes infrastructure for AI, including GPU clouds and MLOps platforms, from AI-powered infrastructure management. It surveys tools in both categories and highlights options such as CoreWeave, Modal, MLflow, Pulumi Neo, and other infrastructure agents and assistants.

## Source excerpt

"AI infrastructure tools" covers two distinct markets: infrastructure for AI (GPU clouds like CoreWeave, MLOps platforms like Weights & Biases) and AI for infrastructure (agentic platforms like Pulumi Neo that generate, deploy, and govern cloud resources for you). Most teams need tools from both categories, and picking the wrong one wastes budget and adoption goodwill. The pressure to get this right is real. McKinsey research puts the productivity lift from generative AI in software development at 20-45%, which is great for application teams and a problem for platform teams trying to keep up with the resulting feature flow. Infrastructure investment is climbing on both fronts: more spend on the compute that trains and serves models, more spend on AI tools that manage everything else. This guide covers both categories: the compute and MLOps stack in Part 1, and AI-powered infrastructure management in Part 2, where the more interesting product shift is happening.
