LLM Marketing Evolved

The duality of developer existence, captured in Shiba Inu form. On the left, we have the battle-hardened veteran—muscular, imposing, and completely unimpressed by technology that can't handle basic functionality. Meanwhile, the right side shows the innocent newcomer, blissfully celebrating an AI-generated website that probably has the structural integrity of a house of cards in a hurricane. The experienced dev knows that "generated in 5 minutes" means "will cause 5 months of debugging." The circle of life continues.

Google really said "let's revolutionize coding with AI!" and then proceeded to create the most EXHAUSTING onboarding experience known to humankind. You're hyped, you download it, and suddenly you're trapped in authentication hell—three login attempts like you're trying to break into Fort Knox. Then BAM, rate limited after 5 prompts because apparently Google thinks you're trying to speedrun the singularity. And the cherry on top? Rumors swirling that Google's own engineers aren't even allowed to use their own creation. The absolute BETRAYAL. So naturally, you crawl back to VS Code with your tail between your legs, defeated by corporate bureaucracy once again. Sometimes the old reliable just hits different.

Behold the perfect visualization of how AI investment money circulates in 2023! Microsoft pumping billions into OpenAI, OpenAI funneling cash to Nvidia for GPUs, and poor Oracle just awkwardly hanging out in the loop trying to stay relevant. The articulated bus traffic jam is *chef's kiss* perfect - these tech giants are just bending over backward to hand each other obscene amounts of cash while going absolutely nowhere. Meanwhile, the actual innovation is probably that bicycle in the corner quietly sneaking past the whole mess.

Ah, the mathematical reality check we didn't ask for but desperately needed. This dev just proudly announced that AI multiplied their productivity by 5x, taking them from a "0.1x developer" to a... wait for it... "0.5x developer." Still not even hitting the baseline of 1x! It's that special kind of self-deprecating humor that cuts deep because somewhere in your soul, you're wondering if ChatGPT is just making your mediocre code slightly less mediocre. The dream of becoming a 10x developer remains exactly that—a dream—while we celebrate our journey from "completely useless" to "somewhat functional."

Content You're the new tech lead nOW I'm getting paid like one too, right? @SeniorDeveloper I'm going to be paid like a tech lead too, right?

First tweet: "Look at me! I built a SaaS with AI and zero coding! People actually pay for this!" Two days later: "Help! I'm being hacked! My API keys are maxed out, people are bypassing subscriptions, and my database is a dumpster fire!" The classic "I'm not technical" + "I skipped all security measures" combo strikes again. Turns out that building a product without understanding the fundamentals is like building a house with popsicle sticks—impressive until the first strong wind. Friendly reminder: AI can write your code, but it can't protect you from your own hubris. Security isn't just a vibe killer—it's actually kind of important.
