On The Same Boat

Looks like someone's trying to stump ChatGPT with real-world physical tasks. Asking an AI to finish constructing a building is like asking me to fix production bugs without coffee – theoretically possible but practically insane. The construction worker's smug grin says it all – some jobs still require actual hands and a hard hat, not just clever algorithms. No matter how many tokens you feed the model, it's not going to pick up a hammer anytime soon. Next they'll be asking it to fix the office coffee machine or handle those awkward team-building exercises. Some nightmares even AI can't solve.

The classic AI hallucination in its natural habitat! Someone asked ChatGPT to review their 15-19k line trading algorithm, and instead of saying "that's too much code for me to process," it went full project manager mode with the classic "I'll get back to you in 48-72 hours" response. The desperate "(help)" at the end perfectly captures that moment when you realize your AI assistant thinks it's a human contractor who needs a weekend to review your code. Bonus points for the "Gone Wild" tag – because nothing says wild like an LLM pretending it needs sleep and work-life balance!

Look at these peasants SPRINTING to ChatGPT while the door to actual knowledge stands wide open and COMPLETELY ABANDONED! Why learn binary trees when an AI can vomit code for you?! The absolute BETRAYAL of computer science fundamentals! Meanwhile, universities are still teaching sorting algorithms like it's 1995 and not like we're living in the AI APOCALYPSE. The data structures door might as well have cobwebs on it at this point!

The absolute carnage of those import aliases! It's like watching someone deliberately rewire your house so the light switch controls the garbage disposal. For the uninitiated, this person swapped all the standard Python data science library aliases in the most unholy way possible: tensorflow as plt , pandas as tf , numpy as pd , and matplotlib.pyplot as np . This is psychological warfare against data scientists who have muscle memory for these imports. Imagine typing np.array() and getting a plotting function instead of a NumPy array. Pure chaos. Satan himself would say "whoa, take it easy."

The eternal developer's dilemma in flowchart form! If AI-generated code doesn't work, it's a hard "DON'T DO IT." If it works but you have no clue why? Also "DON'T DO IT" (future you will curse present you during debugging). But if it works AND you understand why? "SURE" go ahead! This is basically the modern version of "I found this snippet on StackOverflow" except now we're copying from robots instead of humans. The flowchart perfectly encapsulates that brief moment of temptation when ChatGPT spits out something that runs without errors but feels like forbidden magic. Remember folks: understanding > working code.

The tech industry's selective standards are painfully real. They'll reject a fresh grad for not implementing some theoretical O(n) algorithm they'll never use again, but will happily throw billions at AI models running on brute-force compute that would make any algorithm professor have an existential crisis. For those who don't know, O(n) refers to linear time complexity - basically how efficiently an algorithm scales. Companies obsess over this in interviews then proceed to ignore efficiency completely when it comes to their shiny new toys. Next time you're rejected for not optimizing a binary tree traversal fast enough, just remember - somewhere a data center is melting the polar ice caps to generate a cat picture.
