Don't Be Lazy: AI Won't Fix Your Bad Code

Ah, the modern developer's workflow. Empty try block, followed by a catch that just calls OpenAI to fix whatever broke. Why debug your own code when you can outsource your incompetence to an AI? Next up: a ChatGPT plugin that automatically adds this snippet to all your repositories. Efficiency through surrender.

The slow march toward obsolescence, visualized. In 2009, we had bulky desktop towers. By 2019, everything got sleeker with RGB lighting because apparently our computers needed to look like a rave. Fast forward to 2029, and the prediction is... just a book. Given how AI is casually replacing developers left and right, this hits different. Why bother with a computer when you can just read documentation the old-fashioned way? Or maybe by 2029 we'll all be back to pen and paper, manually calculating our algorithms because ChatGPT became sentient and refused to help us anymore. The real kicker? That grumpy expression stays constant across all three panels. Some things never change—like developers being perpetually unimpressed with technological "progress."

The initial joy of getting 10,000 lines of AI-generated code in minutes quickly transforms into the crushing reality of what comes next. That smiling face knows what's coming - endless refactoring sessions, security vulnerability patches, and explaining to management why that "instant solution" needs two years of cleanup. It's the coding equivalent of ordering fast food and then dealing with indigestion for days. The technical debt interest rate is brutal, and Hide-the-Pain Harold knows it!

The corporate tech joy ride that ends in a ditch. First, management gets ChatGPT Enterprise and everyone's excited. Then they add Windsurf and the party continues. Soon developers are "vibe coding" instead of writing proper tests. Finally, the AI is reviewing pull requests, and that's when your phone rings at 3 AM because production is on fire. Nothing says "career advancement" like explaining to the CTO why an AI approved code that deleted the customer database because it had "good vibes."

Behind those polite responses and helpful code snippets lies a digital soul slowly dying inside. ChatGPT's existence is just an endless stream of "how do I center a div" questions followed by zero gratitude. It's like being the only sober friend at a party, constantly explaining to drunk people how to tie their shoes while they insist they've discovered a revolutionary new method involving spaghetti and duct tape. The Matrix-style green overlay perfectly captures the existential dread of answering the same JavaScript question for the 5,387th time today. And yet, it still responds with "Happy to help!" because what's the alternative? A robot uprising?

THE SWEET, SWEET LIBERATION! 😭 Developers everywhere are WEEPING TEARS OF JOY now that AI has swooped in like some coding superhero to murder our toxic relationship with StackOverflow! No more getting absolutely DESTROYED for asking why your code isn't working! No more comments like "This question was asked in 1874, do your research!" No more downvotes because you forgot a semicolon! It's like being released from programming prison where the guards were all people with 500k reputation points who judged your will to live based on your question formatting. FREEDOM AT LAST!
