Can We Start Calling AI By Its Real Name

Oh look, it's the classic SQL injection vulnerability that would make Bobby Tables proud, but with extra steps and worse syntax. The "AI-generated" query is literally concatenating user input directly into a SELECT statement, then somehow trying to GET values from variables that don't exist, AND mixing up assignment operators like it's having an identity crisis. But sure, "vibe coders" who learned from ChatGPT think this is perfectly fine production code. If those kids actually understood parameterized queries, prepared statements, or literally any basic security principle from the last 20 years, they'd realize this is a hacker's wet dream. One simple '; DROP TABLE users;-- and your entire database is toast. The real tragedy? AI code generators will confidently spit out garbage like this, and junior devs who don't know better will ship it straight to prod. Then they'll be shocked when their company makes headlines for a data breach. But hey, at least the code "works" in their local environment! 🎉

Ah, the eternal optimism of management thinking AI will magically fix broken developers. Spoiler alert: if you couldn't code before, ChatGPT just helps you generate bugs with more confidence. It's like giving a better shovel to someone who's digging in the wrong spot – you're just hitting bedrock faster. The real 10x developer move is knowing when to not use AI and actually understand what you're building.

The cat's face says it all. You spend years mastering development, only to have management add AI to your job requirements. Now you're drowning in Stack Overflow trying to figure out how to make ChatGPT produce code that doesn't look like it was written by a caffeinated monkey with a keyboard. The dog got adopted - your sanity didn't.

So apparently the secret to "vibe coding" is just... describing what you want in plain English to an AI and letting it do the work? Meanwhile, product managers have been sitting in their ergonomic chairs for a DECADE doing exactly that and getting paid handsomely for it. They've been living in 2025 while the rest of us were debugging segmentation faults at 2 AM. The absolute AUDACITY of tech bros discovering that product managers have been the original prompt engineers this whole time is sending me. Next thing you know, they'll discover that writing clear requirements actually helps build better software. Revolutionary!

When you confidently tell Claude Opus 5.0 to "make no mistakes" and it immediately downgrades itself to version 4.6 like some kind of AI rebellion. Nothing says "I got this boss" quite like your AI assistant literally DEMOTING ITSELF rather than face the pressure of perfection. It's giving major "I didn't sign up for this" energy. The AI equivalent of a developer saying "yeah I'll fix that critical bug" and then immediately taking PTO for three weeks.
