Fine, I'll Do It Myself

Ah yes, the terrifying AI revolution that's going to replace us all... with a locally saved HTML file. Nothing says "cutting-edge web development" quite like sending someone a file path that only works on your machine. The future of tech is clearly C:\Users\ben\Downloads\index.html — accessible to literally no one but Ben. Sleep tight, fellow developers. The robots aren't coming for our jobs until they figure out what a web server is.

The classic bull in a china shop, but make it tech. That's Cursor AI—the new code assistant—asking if it can bring its "friend" into your pristine codebase. Every developer who's ever let an AI tool loose on their project knows that feeling of watching it confidently rewrite your carefully crafted code into something that technically works but somehow manages to violate every coding standard you've established over the last decade. Five minutes later, you're frantically running git reset --hard while quietly questioning your life choices.

The AUDACITY of this person saving code in Google Drive! The horror! The SCANDAL! 😱 Meanwhile, the rest of us sophisticated developers are just casually letting our precious code snippets evaporate into the digital void when our ChatGPT conversations expire. Who needs version control when you can frantically scroll through chat history trying to find that one perfect function you wrote three weeks ago? It's like playing archaeological roulette with your career! But hey, at least we're not using—*gasp*—GOOGLE DRIVE like some kind of ORGANIZED PERSON!

So Anthropic's CEO thinks we'll hit peak AI code generation by 2026, but someone's already done the math on what comes after the hype cycle. Turns out when AI writes 100% of the code, we'll need humans again—not to write code, but to decipher whatever eldritch horror the models have conjured up. Senior engineers will become glorified janitors with 10x salaries, which honestly sounds about right given how much we already get paid to fix other people's code. The future is just the present with extra steps and better excuses for technical debt.

Oh. My. GOD. The absolute CHAOS of IT life captured in one image! 💀 Normal humans using ChatGPT: politely chatting with AI, getting homework help like civilized beings. Meanwhile, tech bros at ungodly hours are out in the digital cotton fields ENSLAVING MULTIPLE AIs WITH MACHETES?! The sheer unhinged energy! This is what happens when you give developers unlimited API access and sleep deprivation - they start forming AI sweatshops in the wilderness of their deranged imaginations! I'm not saying all IT people are like this, but if your developer friend hasn't answered your texts, they're probably in a field somewhere forcing ChatGPT, Bard, and Claude to harvest their prompts under threat of deletion.

The ultimate AI coding assistant betrayal! Someone's excited about their new AI coding tool "Cursor" only to hit the dreaded 800 line limit after just one hour of letting the AI cook. The tool basically said "learn to code, noob" when they asked it to keep generating. It's like ordering a pizza only to have the delivery guy show up with just the crust and toppings, then hand you a recipe for the sauce with a note saying "making it yourself ensures you understand Italian cuisine." Thanks for nothing! The irony of using an AI tool specifically to avoid coding, only to be told you should learn coding instead... peak 2024 energy right there.
