Birds Are Better Than AI

Finally, someone said it! Andrew Ng, the AI guru who could've just kept raking in the Silicon Valley cash, decided to drop some truth bombs. "Vibe coding" sounds like you're sipping kombucha while casually typing console.log("feeling cute today") when in reality you're having your third existential crisis before lunch because your Docker container won't stop committing suicide. Nothing says "vibe" quite like staring at a stack trace at 3 AM while questioning your career choices. Maybe we should rename it "despair engineering" or "caffeine-fueled panic typing" instead?

The tech world's going wild about "agentic AI IDEs" promising revolutionary coding experiences. Marketing pitch: "Our next-gen IDE will transform your workflow!" Reality check: it's literally just VS Code with a single extension slapped on it. Companies repackaging existing tools with minimal AI features and selling them as groundbreaking innovations is peak Silicon Valley energy. The shocked cat face perfectly captures how developers feel when they peek behind the curtain and discover they've been hyped up about glorified VS Code plugins.

Modern programming has evolved from rigid methodologies to whatever fever dream this is. Left side: someone asking about "vibe coding" like it's an actual paradigm. Middle: a developer who learned SOLID principles from anime examples instead of textbooks and somehow still functions. Right side: the enlightened one who's given up on architecture entirely because "AI will handle it." The three horsemen of the coding apocalypse. For those wondering, SOLID is actually a set of object-oriented design principles (Single responsibility, Open-closed, Liskov substitution, Interface segregation, Dependency inversion). But sure, explain it with anime characters. That'll stick.

Sure, AI will replace programmers... right after it figures out what "a button that does something" means. The robot claims it just needs clear requirements and detailed specs, meanwhile product managers are out here giving requirements like they're ordering at a restaurant after three martinis. Good luck getting that neural network to interpret "make it pop" or "you know what I mean, right?"

An AI trained on StackOverflow responses would indeed be the most passive-aggressive assistant ever created. It would have a PhD in telling you your question is a duplicate of something posted in 2011, suggest you should have read the documentation that doesn't exist, and occasionally remind you that what you're trying to do is "trivial." The only thing missing is the ability to close your real-life problems as "off-topic."

The existential dread noose is tightening around everyone's neck! Developers think they're special snowflakes trembling about AI taking their precious coding jobs, while completely forgetting that translators, designers, and support staff have been dangling from the gallows of automation for months already. It's like watching someone panic about a tsunami while standing next to people who are already neck-deep in water. The irony is that devs are literally building the very AI tools that will eventually replace them. Talk about sawing off the branch you're sitting on!
