Can Jenkins scale in the era of AI-assisted development?

What's this blog post about?

The rise of code development using Generative AI (GenAI) has led to an increase in the volume and speed of code creation, causing challenges for CI/CD systems like Jenkins that struggle to handle the load. Companies are facing issues such as hitting scale ceilings, dealing with plugins becoming abandonware, and experiencing confusing UIs that slow productivity. Buildkite Pipelines is a CI/CD tool designed for developer happiness, offering unlimited scalability, rich customization, and trusted stability for platform teams. It's crucial to have tools that can scale to meet the demands of software delivery in the GenAI era, especially as AI code assistants increase the volume and frequency of code changes.
