The expectation vs. reality of online programming courses hits harder than a production bug on Friday afternoon.
Top panel: "What they promise" - a perfect object detection model identifying everything with impressive confidence scores. "Yes, after this course you'll build YOLO models that can detect a mosquito from space!"
Bottom panel: "What you actually learn" - a basic linear regression with scattered data points that barely fit the line. "Congratulations, you can now predict housing prices with 60% accuracy and call yourself a 'data scientist' on LinkedIn!"
The brutal truth is most courses promise you'll become the next AI genius, but you'll end up struggling to remember which way the x and y axes go. And somehow they'll still charge you $499 for the privilege.
