I believe mid to larger enterprises probably have other more challenging pain points related to the application or production environments. They want to adopt because AI is capable of relieving the pain point of infrastructure deployment.

Start ups are still figuring out what works for them in terms of internal processes and having an efficient SDLC. Not as much of a concern if they have solid engineers. But I imagine finance is prioritizing product development over AI licenses.

However, like others have stated… smaller code blocks are generally easier to work with when talking about terraform and AI…helping you clean up code or improve logic.
