AI vs. Reality: The If-Statement Apocalypse

Look at these peasants SPRINTING to ChatGPT while the door to actual knowledge stands wide open and COMPLETELY ABANDONED! Why learn binary trees when an AI can vomit code for you?! The absolute BETRAYAL of computer science fundamentals! Meanwhile, universities are still teaching sorting algorithms like it's 1995 and not like we're living in the AI APOCALYPSE. The data structures door might as well have cobwebs on it at this point!

When AI becomes your most honest code reviewer! GitHub Copilot just casually suggesting a function called getWorstFramework() that returns 'Angular'. The machine uprising isn't with killer robots—it's with sassy code assistants throwing shade at your framework choices. The real comedy here is that Copilot didn't hesitate for a millisecond before choosing violence. No diplomatic "it depends on your use case" nonsense—just straight-up framework assassination. And the 7,323 likes? That's just developers collectively saying "where's the lie though?"

That moment when it hits you—your entire coding career has been reduced to "vibes" since ChatGPT arrived. No more grinding through Stack Overflow at 3 AM; now it's just "Hey AI, fix this mess" and hoping for the best. Your carefully cultivated programming skills? Just expensive intuition for prompting. Your CS degree? Just fancy paper to frame next to your "I used to write my own code" participation trophy.

Sometimes the dumbest solution is the winning solution! This freshman created a poker bot with just two lines of code: if isMyTurn: goAllIn() and absolutely demolished sophisticated algorithms by exploiting their risk-averse logic. The sophisticated bots kept folding to aggressive all-ins, proving that in both poker and programming, simplicity can trump complexity. It's basically the computational equivalent of the "spray and pray" technique—except it actually worked!

That's not machine learning. That's just a terminal spewing errors while someone went to lunch. Classic misdirection to keep management from asking why your project is six weeks behind. The screen full of red text means either your code is spectacularly broken or you're training the next ChatGPT. Either way, nobody's touching that keyboard until the "learning" is complete.

So AWS proudly announces that AI writes 75% of their production code, and then their engineers wonder why everything's on fire? Classic. When "Claude" (their AI) responds with enthusiastic agreement to fix production issues, it's basically Elmo cheerfully presiding over the flames of digital hell. Welcome to the future of cloud computing, where your critical infrastructure is maintained by the digital equivalent of a pyromaniac puppet who's just happy to be included in the conversation. Next time your AWS-hosted site goes down, remember: it's not a bug, it's an AI-generated feature!
