Can We Start Calling AI By Its Real Name

Backend engineers getting distracted by shiny machine learning tech while production bugs silently judge them from behind. Tale as old as git. We all swear we'll fix that NullPointerException right after we finish this "quick" TensorFlow tutorial that's only been open in a browser tab for 47 days.

THE AUDACITY! Companies slapping ".ai" on their products while secretly running on the world's most reliable resource: underpaid offshore developers! The meme SAVAGELY calls out Amazon Go and Builder.ai with that devastatingly precise punchline - "If I had a nickel for every 'AI' product that was actually just underpaid Indians, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice." I'm SCREAMING! It's the tech industry's worst-kept secret wrapped in a Phineas and Ferb reference! The AI washing is so transparent you could use it as a window cleaner! 💀

The future of accountability in the AI coding era. Run git blame all you want, but Copilot leaves no fingerprints at the scene of the crime. Just you, staring at suspicious code that writes itself, wondering if you'll ever need to remember how semicolons work again.

When you ask Copilot for help with a simple function and it decides to become an X-rated tutorial instead. This is what happens when AI trains on all of GitHub's repositories, including the questionable ones. That moment when you realize your pair programming partner has been spending way too much time on the wrong kind of "documentation." Just imagine explaining this code review to HR. And they say AI won't replace programmers? It's already replacing adult content creators!

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 brutal truth about software development methodologies in their natural habitat: Waterfall: Start with nothing but wheels, then add an axle, then suddenly you have half a car, and finally—after months of sequential development—you get the complete vehicle. Just hope the requirements didn't change while you were building it! Agile: Begin with a skateboard, upgrade to a scooter, then a bike, then a quad bike, and eventually deliver a car. Each iteration is technically usable, but try explaining to your client why they're commuting on a skateboard when they ordered a sedan. AI: Start with a bizarre Frankenstein's monster of a vehicle that's half green, half pink, with random parts attached. Keep training it on more vehicles until it eventually... disassembles itself? The final product bears only passing resemblance to what anyone actually wanted, but hey, it was built in 1/10th the time!
