New AI Engineers

Getting that baby started on backpropagation before they can even propagate backward out of the room. Gotta secure that AI engineering job by age 3. The kid's already debugging neural network architectures while the rest of us are still trying to center a div. In 20 years they'll be creating sentient AI while we're still arguing about tabs vs spaces.

When you ask people about AI safety, you get a perfect bell curve distribution. On the far left, you've got the "AI is dangerous" crowd who probably still think Skynet is a documentary. On the far right, another "AI is dangerous" group—except these folks actually understand transformers and alignment problems. And then there's the massive 68% in the middle who think "AI is entirely controllable" while nervously sweating through their shirt. These are the same people who confidently deploy ChatGPT integrations into production without rate limits. The real joke? Both extremes are technically right, but for wildly different reasons. One watched too much sci-fi, the other read too many research papers. Meanwhile, the middle is just hoping their AI chatbot doesn't start recommending users eat glue on pizza.

Oh look, it's the modern developer's daily ritual! That moment when you check what you stepped in and discover it's not regular garbage—it's AI Generated SQL . The perfect representation of what happens when you let AI write your database queries. Sure, it looks like SQL from a distance, but examine it closely and you'll find a horrifying abomination that would make even the most battle-hardened DBA weep. Nothing says "I've made terrible life choices" quite like debugging code that was hallucinated by an algorithm with the database knowledge of a caffeinated squirrel. Next time just write the query yourself, unless you enjoy explaining to your boss why the production database is suddenly identifying as a toaster.

Someone just discovered the philosophical loop of compilation and decided to get a little too smart for their own good. If compilers turn Python into machine code, and LLMs turn English into Python, why not just... write everything in assembly and call it a day? Because we're not masochists, that's why. Sure, you could spend three weeks debugging a segfault caused by a misaligned register, or you could write readable code that doesn't make your coworkers want to quit. High-level languages exist for a reason: abstraction is a feature, not a bug. The "No!" is the collective response of every developer who's ever had to maintain legacy assembly code at 3 AM. We invented layers of abstraction so we could actually ship products before the heat death of the universe.

OH. MY. GOD. The absolute PEAK of startup innovation right here! 🙄 Some genius had the REVOLUTIONARY idea to... *dramatic pause*... make API calls to OpenAI. That's it. That's the entire business model! While everyone else is trying to be the "New Facebook" or "New Snapchat," this visionary is basically saying "let's be the middleman for technology that already exists and charge for it!" It's like opening a store that sells... trips to the actual store. THE AUDACITY! THE VISION! Silicon Valley investors are probably THROWING their money at this groundbreaking concept as we speak! Next week's brilliant startup: "We click buttons for you!"

LinkedIn founders are out here posting thought leadership blogs about building autonomous AI agents with zero human oversight, patting themselves on the back like they've cracked the code. Meanwhile, their "maintenance plan" is just vibes and prayers as the codebase balloons into an unmaintainable monster. You know what's wild? They're literally presenting a blank scroll as their strategy. No refactoring roadmap, no tech debt allocation, no monitoring plan—just pure, unfiltered optimism. It's giving "move fast and break things" energy, except they're breaking their own infrastructure and calling it innovation. The real kicker? Everyone's so busy building AI agents that nobody's asking "who's gonna maintain this mess when it scales?" Spoiler alert: it's gonna be some poor engineer at 2 AM wondering why the AI decided to recursively call itself into oblivion because nobody wrote proper guardrails.
