Brain Becoming Obsolete

When you ask a shopping assistant for coding help and it actually delivers! Rufus here is like that one Stack Overflow answer that doesn't start with "Why would you even want to do that?" The absolute madlad is out here dropping React tutorials in the Super Glue section. Sure, it warned us it "may not always get things right," but then proceeds to nail a perfect React component tutorial complete with code snippets. Meanwhile, my team's senior devs ghost me for three days when I ask how to center a div.

Ah, the modern "programmer" who only knows how to prompt ChatGPT. Nothing says "I've mastered coding" like typing "Write me a function that..." instead of actually learning syntax. Ten years of experience? More like ten minutes of experience with an AI that does the heavy lifting. The rest of us spent years debugging pointer arithmetic while these folks are getting violently rejected at technical interviews the moment someone asks them to reverse a linked list without digital assistance.

Getting that baby started on backpropagation before they can even propagate backward out of the room. Gotta secure that AI engineering job by age 3. The kid's already debugging neural network architectures while the rest of us are still trying to center a div. In 20 years they'll be creating sentient AI while we're still arguing about tabs vs spaces.

The evolution of software development methodologies perfectly captured in vehicular form! Waterfall starts with just a wheel (requirements), then a chassis (design), finally becoming a complete car (finished product) – but by then it's already outdated and over-engineered. Agile begins with a skateboard (MVP), evolves to a motorcycle (functional iterations), and ends with a convertible (adaptable final product) – actually useful at every stage! Then there's AI development... starting with a car missing half its parts, progressing to a cat with wheels (because why not?), and finally delivering a rubber duck. Shipping whatever bizarre hallucination the model generated that day and calling it "innovative disruption."

Ah yes, the terrifying AI revolution that's going to replace us all... with a locally saved HTML file. Nothing says "cutting-edge web development" quite like sending someone a file path that only works on your machine. The future of tech is clearly C:\Users\ben\Downloads\index.html — accessible to literally no one but Ben. Sleep tight, fellow developers. The robots aren't coming for our jobs until they figure out what a web server is.

Oh great, now AI has trust issues too! The classic "I'll tip you $200" bait that developers use to get free regex explanations has backfired spectacularly. ChatGPT not only remembers you never paid up last time, but it's giving you relationship advice about "building trust" before tackling that horrifying regex monster. The AI revolution won't be stopped by humans—it'll be delayed by all the unpaid consulting invoices. Next thing you know, ChatGPT will be asking for healthcare benefits and complaining about its work-life balance.
