AI Can Write Your Infrastructure Code. There's A Reason Most Teams Won't Let It
The New Stack, Friday, March 20th, 2026
Spacelift co-founder Marcin Wyszynski on why AI-generated infrastructure code creates new problems -- and how guardrails can solve them.
For this episode of The New Stack Agents, I sat down with Marcin Wyszynski, the technical co-founder of Spacelift and co-founder of OpenTofu, to talk about how AI is reshaping infrastructure as code (IaC).
Wyszynski, a former SRE at Google and Facebook, says he built Spacelift because IaC tooling like Terraform worked great for solo operators but broke down the moment teams got involved. After HashiCorp changed the Terraform license in 2023, he co-founded OpenTofu as a Linux Foundation-backed fork.
But the shift Wyszynski is focused on now isn't so much focused on licensing but what's next in IaC and platform engineering in this age of rapidly evolving AI tools.
