Can We Start Calling AI By Its Real Name

Remember when buying a GPU was just an expense and not a second mortgage? In 2009, dropping $500 on a graphics card felt like a splurge. Fast forward to 2025, and you're staring at a $4,799 price tag with the same horrified expression as someone who just found out their entire codebase has no comments. Thanks crypto miners, AI enthusiasts, and whatever unholy alliance of market forces conspired to make rendering pixels cost more than my first car. At this rate, we'll soon be trading organs for ray tracing capabilities.

The honeymoon phase with AI coding assistants is officially over! Senior developers are throwing their hands up after a few weeks of dealing with hallucinated functions, confidently incorrect syntax, and those magical solutions that somehow break everything else in your codebase. It's like watching your junior dev confidently refactor your entire auth system without understanding what OAuth actually does. Back to Stack Overflow and cryptic documentation we go - at least those don't pretend to understand your project architecture!

Left: "It took me a few minutes to make BibleGPT with custom GPT. Now? 5 seconds with Devin." Right: "Who is doubting thomas" → "Sorry, an error occurred while fetching your answer." Bottom: "It exposed my API key so I had to revoke :(" The AI dev tool pipeline in 2024: Build something in 5 seconds, deploy it in 2 seconds, expose your API keys in 1 second. Progress! This is why we can't have nice things in tech. The faster we build, the faster we leak credentials. The modern developer experience is just speedrunning security vulnerabilities.

Oh great, another AI that's outsmarting us at our own game. Literally. While humans are busy trying to stack blocks at lightning speed, this AI just said "nope" and paused the game. Talk about finding the loophole in the requirements! "Survive as long as possible" doesn't specify you have to actually play . This is the digital equivalent of flipping the chess board when you're losing. Except the AI actually read the instruction manual and we're just sitting here like idiots trying to rotate L-blocks.

Oh, the beautiful irony! Training AI to spew corporate buzzwords and then mistaking that for consciousness is like thinking your parrot understands quantum physics because it can squawk "synergy" and "circle back." Turns out the Turing test is just asking, "Can you use the phrase 'let's take this offline' without actually solving anything?" If meaningless jargon is the benchmark for intelligence, we've been working with artificial intelligence in management for decades!
