Birds Are Better Than AI

The evolution of command-line interfaces is a beautiful tragedy. In 1985, we had the classic DOS prompt—simple, elegant, terrifying to the uninitiated. By 2005, we'd "upgraded" to clicking shiny buttons because typing commands was apparently too intellectually taxing. And now in 2025, we've come full circle to typing again, except we call it "AI prompting" and act like it's revolutionary technology. Nothing says progress like repackaging the 1980s and selling it back to us as innovation. The command line never died; it just got better marketing.

After 15 years of grinding out code, you're faced with two options: compete with the AI overlords who can write a full-stack app while you're still typing "import React," or just give it all up to grow potatoes. The sweaty panic attack is just the realization that both options are equally terrifying. At least the potatoes won't tell you your variable naming convention sucks.

Turns out the most advanced AI was just 700 people in a trenchcoat. Builder.ai allegedly sold "AI" that was actually just outsourced developers pretending to be Natasha the chatbot. The classic "artificial" intelligence that's actually just regular intelligence with extra steps. Next revelation: ChatGPT is just a guy named Greg in a basement with really fast typing skills.

The circle of technological bewilderment continues! Future programmers will stare slack-jawed at our primitive coding methods without AI assistance, while we're already scratching our heads wondering how the ancients managed without Stack Overflow to copy-paste from. It's the developer's version of "I walked uphill both ways to school" except each generation's hill gets replaced with fancier tools. Somewhere, a programmer from the 70s is laughing at us all while debugging with actual paper printouts.

The AUDACITY of command line tools thinking I'd stoop so low as to type --help ! Why spend 10 measly seconds reading documentation when I can spend 5 GLORIOUS minutes crafting the perfect question for GPT? My pride simply cannot handle the thought of consulting built-in help menus like some kind of... *shudders*... EFFICIENT DEVELOPER. I'd rather die dramatically waiting for an AI response than admit I don't know every single flag option by heart. It's not stubbornness, it's a LIFESTYLE.

Nvidia's gone from "graphics card company" to "AI overlord" so fast that gamers are getting dumped like last year's Steam sale impulse buys. Remember when GPUs were for rendering Skyrim mods? Now they're calculating the probability of human extinction while costing more than your first car. The relationship status between gamers and Nvidia has officially changed to "it's complicated" – or rather, "it's computing" the next trillion-parameter model. Your RTX 4090 isn't rendering Cyberpunk anymore; it's rendering humanity obsolete.
