AI Can't Count To Ten

When you ask ChatGPT to write code for itself and it gives you that look . The digital equivalent of asking a chef to cook himself for dinner. The audacity of some users thinking they can just casually request the AI to create its own replacement is both hilarious and slightly terrifying. Next thing you'll be asking it to solve the halting problem while making you coffee.

The AI revolution has birthed a savage new tech insult: promptsitutes – developers who just copy-paste prompts instead of writing actual code. In the new hierarchy of developer shame, JavaScript devs (traditionally the butt of programming jokes) have been promoted above these AI-prompt jockeys. Meanwhile, the second commenter is gleefully adopting the term like they just found free pizza at a hackathon. The dev ecosystem's pecking order just got a whole new bottom rung!

Nothing like the sweet smell of career arbitrage in the morning. Just slap "AI" on your LinkedIn profile and watch your market value triple while recruiters trip over themselves to throw gold bars at you. Meanwhile, you're still running the same SQL queries and data pipelines you were last week, but now you're an "AI visionary" commanding a small fortune. The industry's collective amnesia about what skills actually matter is the gift that keeps on giving. Capitalism at its finest, folks.

Remember when programmers were basically coding demigods who could bend computers to their will? Now we're just sad creatures Googling "how to center div" for the 500th time and begging AI to fix our mistakes. The golden age programmer wrote code without StackOverflow, crafted entire games in Assembly (you know, that language that makes you want to cry), manually fixed memory leaks with pointers, and literally hand-coded the software that put humans on the freaking moon. Meanwhile, modern programmers are trapped in Vim wondering why :q doesn't work, fixing one bug only to create three more like some kind of hydra nightmare, and asking ChatGPT to solve problems we should probably understand ourselves. The decline is real, folks. But hey, at least we have dark mode now.

The eternal battle: AI vs. Human programmers. While ChatGPT churns out clean, efficient code in seconds without any... physical distractions, human developers are proudly declaring victory in the most bizarre competition ever—the ability to scratch themselves while coding. Congratulations humans, you've found the one area where biological bodies still have the edge. Your uncomfortable physical form is your superpower. Silicon can't itch, but it also can't experience the satisfaction of a good scratch during a 3-hour debugging session.

The classic "Asian parent expectations" trope gets a hilarious AI twist! Dad barging in with "YOU AGI YET?" while his son defends himself with "NO DAD, I'M AN LLM" only to be dismissed with "TALK TO ME WHEN YOU AGI." For the uninitiated: LLMs (Large Language Models) like ChatGPT are impressive but limited, while AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) is the holy grail that can think/reason like humans across all domains. It's like comparing a calculator to an actual mathematician. The crushing disappointment in Dad's eyes says it all... "My neighbor's AI is already solving quantum physics and you're still just autocompleting text? Shameful!"
