ChatGPT Vs Programmers: First Time?

Ah yes, nothing says "efficient solution" like using a machete labeled "Deep learning" to slice through a tiny piece of bread labeled "Simple problem." The classic case of computational overkill. Why use a simple if-statement when you could train a 500-layer neural network that requires a small power plant to run? Next week: using quantum computing to calculate a 15% tip.

Nothing says family bonding like your dad confidently proclaiming your career's imminent doom. The classic "AI will replace programmers" statement—delivered with the same certainty as "you should've been a doctor" and "have you tried turning it off and on again?" Meanwhile, programmers everywhere are writing the AI that supposedly will replace them, debugging its hallucinations, and fixing its broken dependencies. The irony is thicker than legacy code comments. But sure, Dad. I guarantee the robots will take my job right after they figure out how to untangle my spaghetti code and decipher what "// TODO: fix this later" actually means.

Staring into the void waiting for that </button> to magically appear while your AI coding assistant just sits there like "I've done my part." That feeling when you've gone from manually closing your own HTML tags like a caveman to becoming completely dependent on technology that suddenly decides to ghost you. We've evolved from writing our own code to watching a cursor blink, silently judging our life choices. The modern developer experience: 50% coding, 50% waiting for machines to finish what they started.

The ultimate reverse uno card of modern programming! While CS students frantically copy-paste ChatGPT's answers hoping their professor doesn't notice, seasoned devs are out here playing 4D chess—deliberately making their clean, efficient code look like it came from an AI just to appease management's "AI integration" checkbox. Nothing says "I'm embracing the future" quite like downgrading your perfectly functional code with some random variables and unnecessary comments about "leveraging synergies." The irony is delicious.

Oh. My. GOD. The eternal struggle of every data scientist who's ever been handed a Word document and told to "just extract the data" from it! 💀 The bell curve of intelligence is BRUTALLY accurate here. The average schmucks (34% on each side) are blissfully declaring "Word files can't be read by a machine" while the absolute geniuses at both extremes (0.1%!) know the dark arts of table parsing. Meanwhile, every data engineer is in the corner having a nervous breakdown because Karen from marketing just sent over CRITICAL BUSINESS DATA as a beautifully formatted Word table with merged cells. THE HORROR!

Look at me, taking a picture of ChatGPT instead of actually writing documentation. It's the modern dev equivalent of taking vacation photos of the information plaque instead of the actual mountain. Why spend hours documenting code when I can just ask an AI to do it later? Ten years of experience has taught me that future me will definitely understand what current me was thinking without proper docs. Totally. The irony of treating documentation like a distant, majestic view while the actual codebase is right there needing attention is just *chef's kiss*. We've evolved from "the code is self-documenting" to "the AI will document it for me."
