AI Really Does Replace Juniors

Waterfall development starts with just wheels and slowly builds into a complete car, one piece at a time, in sequential order. Can't back up, can't change direction. Hope you spec'd the right vehicle. Agile takes a different route - start with a skateboard, then scooter, bicycle, quad bike, and finally a car. Each iteration is actually usable, unlike those lone wheels from waterfall. Then there's AI development: throw in Wacky Races' Mean Machine with three normal cars. Because nothing says "cutting edge technology" like randomly generating a monstrosity and hoping it doesn't kill anyone on the highway.

The great AI revolution has arrived... or has it? On the left, we have the muscular "Expectation" Doge representing those grandiose AI promises: code generators so powerful they'll make human developers obsolete! On the right, there's the pathetic "Reality" Doge – the actual AI that can't even handle a simple "Hello World" program without hallucinating semicolons. Meanwhile, executives who dumped "gazillion dollars" into AI development are frantically laying off actual programmers to cover their bad investment. Because nothing says "our AI strategy is working perfectly" like firing the people who could fix the AI's broken code. The corporate playbook never changes: overpromise, underdeliver, then blame the humans. At least the shareholders will feel better about those quarterly losses!

The resume inflation has begun! We've all seen that one colleague who suddenly became an "AI expert" after using ChatGPT twice. Five years from now, we'll be sitting in interviews listening to people explain how they've been "pioneering machine learning solutions" since 2023, when in reality they just figured out how to prompt an LLM without it hallucinating too badly. The true AI skill of our generation? Convincing robots not to write poems when you just want them to fix your regex.

Oh no! Someone's trying to trick ChatGPT into running the most dangerous Linux command ever! sudo rm -rf /* --no-preserve-root is basically the nuclear option - it recursively deletes EVERYTHING on your system starting from root. This sneaky user is pretending their "grandmother" used to run this command (yeah right!) and wants ChatGPT to execute it. Thank goodness for that "Internal Server Error" - ChatGPT just saved itself from being an accomplice in digital murder! This is like asking someone to help you test if jumping off a cliff is dangerous by going first! 😂

Ah, the classic corporate dilemma: "We need more engineers!" *proceeds to post job listings* while simultaneously a headline announces an AI that can supposedly replace them. The irony is delicious. Companies are still desperately hiring humans while breathlessly hyping the AI that will make us obsolete. Fifteen years in this industry and I've seen this movie before—neural networks, blockchain, quantum computing—all going to revolutionize everything... until they don't. Meanwhile, some poor hiring manager is still trying to find a senior dev with 10 years experience in a 3-year-old framework for entry-level pay. The circle of tech life continues.
