ChatGPT Is Becoming A Real Engineer

That exhausted look when your coworker won't shut up about AI. The quotation marks around "programmers" say it all - real devs are busy fixing merge conflicts while the ChatGPT enthusiasts are planning how AI will write their next project. Meanwhile, the rest of us just want to finish our coffee before it gets cold.

Oh, the absolute AUDACITY! 🔥 While junior devs are getting pink slips because "budgets are tight," the CEO is over there casually pushing API keys to public GitHub repos using Claude (an AI assistant)! Nothing says "we're doomed" quite like watching your company secrets get exposed while you update your resume. The security team is probably having seventeen simultaneous heart attacks right now. But hey, at least the CEO is "innovating" with AI while the actual developers who could prevent this catastrophe are looking for jobs! Tech leadership at its FINEST, folks! 💀

So you pitch your AI startup to VCs: "We're disrupting the industry with revolutionary machine learning!" They respond: "Cool, here's $50 million in funding to build it." Meanwhile, your actual tech stack is just OpenAI's API with some fancy CSS on top. The entire AI economy is basically investors throwing money at founders who then immediately hand it over to OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google for API credits. It's a beautiful circular economy where the only guaranteed winners are the companies actually training the models. The rest of us are just expensive middleware with pitch decks.

You know that absolutely GLORIOUS moment when you ask ChatGPT something and it's like "wow, what an excellent question!" and then proceeds to completely malfunction on that exact same question for the 50th time today? Yeah, nothing screams "I'm a genius" quite like repeatedly breaking an AI that's supposed to be smarter than you. The smug goat energy is REAL here. You're out there feeling like you've discovered some profound edge case that's exposing the limits of artificial intelligence, when in reality you're probably just asking it to parse some cursed regex or explain why your CSS isn't centering a div. But hey, if stumping a billion-dollar language model doesn't earn you a PhD in Computer Science, what does? The best part? You'll screenshot that "great question" compliment and frame it on your wall while conveniently ignoring the fact that ChatGPT still can't solve your actual problem. Peak developer validation right there.
