Got Scared For A Moment

Behold, the modern tech tragedy in three acts:

Act I: "I'll let GPT-5 refactor our entire codebase!"
Act II: *50+ files changed, 10k+ lines updated, beautiful modular code with best practices*
Act III: "None of it works."

The perfect illustration of AI's current relationship with coding: makes everything look incredible while secretly plotting your application's demise. That beautiful, clean code is like a gorgeous sports car with no engine—pretty to look at but utterly useless for actually getting anywhere.

The punchline "But boy it was beautiful to watch" is the developer equivalent of "The surgery was successful, but the patient died." At least we'll have nicely formatted code to stare at while the production server burns!
