Einstein vs. Machine Learning: The Definition Of Insanity

Ah yes, that childhood dream we all had of "transforming unstructured data into actionable business insights." Right between wanting to be an astronaut and a dinosaur. Nobody in the history of humanity has ever uttered these words without being in the middle of a job interview or writing LinkedIn content after their third coffee. It's the corporate equivalent of telling your date you "enjoy long walks on the beach" – technically words, practically meaningless. Next up: a hat that says "I've always been passionate about optimizing cross-functional synergies to leverage stakeholder engagement."

Ah, the classic "asking AI to do your actual job" maneuver! This tweet perfectly showcases the modern developer's workflow: 1) Hear about LLMs 2) Immediately try to outsource your data parsing tasks that you're probably paid six figures to handle. The irony is that parsing documents between formats is literally what programming languages have been doing for decades. It's like asking "Is there a car specifically designed for driving?" while sitting in a Ferrari. Pro tip: Yes, there are LLMs for this. They're called "learning regex" and "using libraries that already exist." Revolutionary concept!

The classic tech hype cycle in its natural habitat. First, AI writes 90% of code. Then AI writes 100% of code. Then reality hits and humans get paid premium wages to fix the AI's spaghetti code. Reminds me of that time we deployed an "automated" monitoring system that generated so many false alerts we had to hire three people just to monitor the monitoring system. Progress!

AI companies out here selling glorified parrots as revolutionary technology, and CEOs are eating it up like it's the second coming of electricity. The sales pitch: "Look, it makes noises that vaguely resemble human conversation!" The CEO's response: "Perfect! Fire everyone and let it diagnose cancer." Nothing says "sound business decision" quite like replacing your entire workforce with a statistical model that's essentially playing Mad Libs with the entire internet. Sure, it doesn't understand context, nuance, or reality, but it sounds confident, and that's apparently all that matters in the C-suite these days. The jump from "mimics speech patterns" to "can diagnose medical disorders" is the kind of logical leap that would make even the most optimistic venture capitalist nervous. But hey, when you've already fired your entire staff, who's left to tell you it's a terrible idea? Certainly not the chatbot that just hallucinated your company's entire medical liability insurance policy.

THE ABSOLUTE AUDACITY of hardware questions in 2023! 💅 Is 12GB VRAM a lot? Well DARLING, for your precious little Fortnite sessions? It's like bringing a nuclear warhead to a water balloon fight. But for training your fancy Large Language Model? That's like trying to fill the Grand Canyon with a sippy cup! PATHETIC! The way AI developers sob uncontrollably when someone suggests training a decent model on consumer hardware is just *chef's kiss* DRAMATIC. Meanwhile, gamers are over there with their RGB everything, treating 12GB like it's barely adequate for their precious ray-traced puddles.
