When asked about his research process, Anthony Bourdain would describe how he'd blend his formal culinary training with deep dives into local food culture - from market stalls to family recipes. Modern AI code generation follows a similar path: it can't just rely on what it knows - it must tap into continuously evolving, domain-specific knowledge bases. Just as Bourdain would combine his classical French training with techniques learned from local kitchens, AI code generators blend their built-in knowledge with retrieved code snippets and type definitions to generate code that accurately represents the user's intent.

Programming languages offer dozens of advantages for writing Infrastructure as Code (IaC). One of them is that Large Language Models are effective at using general-purpose programming languages, thanks to the vast amount of high-quality training data available. Building on this advantage, we introduced Pulumi AI and Pulumi Copilot last year to enhance Infrastructure-as-Code development with generative AI capabilities. These tools have significantly streamlined infrastructure deployment for tens of thousands of developers.

By simply typing @pulumi in Copilot Chat, developers can now access the power of Pulumi Copilot right within their IDE, saving them time on writing IaC and getting infrastructure deployed.

Building AI-powered tools often brings unexpected challenges—and valuable lessons. While developing Pulumi Copilot, we encountered surprising insights: hallucinations revealed missing product features, prompt engineering wasn't always the fix, and balancing LLM capabilities with traditional code proved essential.

One memorable turning point came from user feedback: "Your tool doesn't know anything!" Instead of seeing it as failure, we saw opportunity—leading to significant improvements.

As Copilot grew, we broke it into smaller pieces we call skills. Each skill does one specific job. The Insights skill handles queries about resource usage and configuration ("How many S3 buckets do I have?"), the Cloud Skill interacts with the Pulumi Service API to manage infrastructure ("Show me my stacks."), the Code Skill generates Pulumi code snippets ("Write a Typescript program..."), and the Docs Skill retrieves information from Pulumi documentation ("How do I use [update plans](https://www.pulumi.com/docs/iac/concepts/update-plans/)?").

When you ask Copilot something, it figures out what you need and picks the right skill for the job – like a manager deciding which expert to send your question to. This [function-calling](https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/function-calling) approach, orchestrated by a component we call the "outer loop," allows Copilot to access and process information beyond its internal knowledge base.

[Infrastructure as Code (IaC)](/what-is/what-is-infrastructure-as-code/) has revolutionized how cloud resources are managed, allowing for more efficient, scalable, and repeatable deployments. We designed [Pulumi IaC](/product/infrastructure-as-code/) to let you program cloud infrastructure using familiar programming languages like TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Go, .NET, Java, and YAML. This approach not only simplifies the process but also integrates seamlessly with existing development tools and ecosystems (e.g., IDEs, standard unit test frameworks, integration test). You can define infrastructure with code, often in just one line, for serverless, Kubernetes, AI/ML, databases, and more. You can also preview changes before deploying unlike many other IaC solutions. Pulumi IaC is fully open source with a [public roadmap](https://github.com/orgs/pulumi/projects/44/). We value working with the community to shape the product through feedback and contributions.

Building and maintaining your own Infrastructure as Code backend involves a significant engineering and operational commitment. On the engineering front, you face security and compliance challenges, as well as the need to develop features that ensure enterprise readiness. Operationally, the backend must be highly available and reliable, and it should facilitate easy onboarding for the rest of the organization when the time comes. Beyond these immediate concerns, there are also hidden personnel costs associated with running your own backend. Let's break down some of those hidden costs.

Infrastructure as Code (IaC) has revolutionized how we manage cloud resources, but navigating complex cloud provider APIs, writing boilerplate code, and iterating through deployment cycles can still be time-consuming. Pulumi offers a fantastic developer experience using familiar programming languages. But what if we could make it even *faster* and more intuitive by integrating powerful AI assistants directly into the development loop?
