Fine, I'll Do It Myself

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!

When your neural network tutorial makes more money on the "other" platform than YouTube. 🤔 Turns out the thirst for knowledge takes on a whole new meaning when it's hosted on Pornhub! $1000 vs $340 per million views? Guess we've all been uploading our algorithms to the wrong site this whole time. The real big brain move isn't optimizing your SEO—it's changing your video platform. And here I am, like an idiot, trying to monetize technical content on YouTube like some kind of peasant.

Claiming you've been using ChatGPT since 1996 is like saying you had WiFi in the Middle Ages. For the youngsters: that's Courage the Cowardly Dog typing on a chunky beige PC from when the internet made dial-up sounds that haunted your nightmares. Back then, "AI assistance" meant asking your roommate if they remembered the syntax for a for-loop while they were in the shower. The closest thing to ChatGPT was probably Clippy, and even he couldn't help you reverse a binary tree.

Putting on glasses to transform from "LLM Engineer" to "Knows about openai, anthropic and google-genai package" is peak tech industry smoke and mirrors. It's like calling yourself a "Cloud Architect" because you once deployed a WordPress site to AWS. The glasses don't add intelligence—they just help you see through the BS of your own job title. Next time someone introduces themselves as an "LLM Engineer," ask them if they can actually explain a transformer architecture or if they just know how to copy-paste API keys.

Ah, the classic "tell us about your AI tools" question. The perfect trap for developers who've been using ChatGPT to write 90% of their code for the last year. Do I admit I outsource my brain to silicon, or pretend I still remember how loops work? It's like asking a chef if they use pre-minced garlic. We all do it, but nobody wants to be the first to confess in the interview.

Oh. My. GOD. This absolute MADMAN is out here coding UI in pure C while the rest of us are frantically learning our 47th JavaScript framework! 💅 Look at this CHAOS WIZARD manually drawing rectangles and buttons with raw C code like it's 1985! Meanwhile React developers are having existential crises when their npm packages are 3 minutes out of date. The AUDACITY of this programmer to declare "not getting replaced by AI" while doing something so unnecessarily complicated that even AI would look at it and say "no thanks, I'll stick to generating cat pictures." The video title says it all - this isn't about efficiency, it's about SPITE. Pure, beautiful, petty programmer spite. And with nearly half a million views, apparently spite sells!
