Holy Edge Case

The ultimate programmer's Uno reverse card. Asking ChatGPT not to copy code is like asking a chef not to use recipes. The brutal truth is none of us write truly "original" code anymore—we're all just remixing Stack Overflow answers with varying degrees of confidence. At least AI is honest about its plagiarism.

Autocomplete tools looking at your code like pawn shop owners evaluating your junk. "Best we can do is predict next token" is the programming equivalent of "I'll give you $5 for that family heirloom." Sure, GitHub Copilot might suggest something brilliant, but usually it's just confidently predicting you want another semicolon or closing bracket. The AI revolution in coding is basically just sophisticated guesswork with better marketing.

Oh, the beautiful irony! Training AI to spew corporate buzzwords and then mistaking that for consciousness is like thinking your parrot understands quantum physics because it can squawk "synergy" and "circle back." Turns out the Turing test is just asking, "Can you use the phrase 'let's take this offline' without actually solving anything?" If meaningless jargon is the benchmark for intelligence, we've been working with artificial intelligence in management for decades!

Asked Copilot to create a simple flexbox layout and it decided to spawn the Inception of div containers. That conditional at the top should've been v-if="canCreateNightmare" . Nothing says "I'm helping" like turning a 3-line layout into the HTML equivalent of a Russian nesting doll. And the best part? All that code just to add the same gap-4 everywhere. Efficiency at its finest!

The big AI models (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude) get all the glory while your scrappy little homegrown model sits alone in the dark. It's that moment when you've spent months fine-tuning your own AI on a single GPU while the tech giants deploy thousands of servers. But hey, at least your model doesn't need an internet connection and won't hallucinate facts about your codebase! There's something beautifully defiant about running your own AI locally—like growing vegetables in your backyard while everyone else shops at Whole Foods. Your electricity bill might disagree though.

OH. MY. GOD. This is the most SPECTACULAR self-own in tech history! 💀 Someone brags they "made an entire website with ChatGPT" (revolutionary, groundbreaking, Nobel Prize material 🙄) only to share their masterpiece via a LOCAL FILE PATH that only exists on THEIR computer! That's like saying "I baked you a cake" and then sending a picture of your refrigerator! The absolute DRAMA of thinking AI stole our jobs while not understanding how the internet works is just *chef's kiss* magnificent. Honey, if you can't tell the difference between a URL and a file path, programmers' jobs are safer than diamonds in a volcano!
