Stop Doing Agile

Someone wants to build ChatGPT for $500? Sure, and I want a Ferrari for the price of a bicycle. This freelance posting is the perfect example of clients who think you can just sprinkle some PHP and Node.js on a project and suddenly have a multi-billion dollar AI platform. OpenAI burned through hundreds of millions in compute costs alone, but sure, let's build that on a budget that wouldn't even cover a junior dev's weekly salary. The 51 desperate freelancers bidding on this are either wildly optimistic or planning to deliver a glorified if-else statement with a chat interface and call it "AI."

The tech industry's current obsession with slapping AI onto products is perfectly captured here. Some poor developer expressing their hatred for AI is immediately surrounded by corporate goons wielding their "tasty AI integration" like it's the solution to everything. Meanwhile, the developer's reaching for what appears to be a shotgun - because sometimes turning it off and on again just isn't enough of a fix. The real innovation would be a product that doesn't mention AI at all.

Congratulations, you've just reinvented rubber duck debugging but with extra steps. Turns out, articulating your problem clearly enough for an AI is the same mental process that makes you realize the solution yourself. The real ChatGPT was the brain cells we activated along the way. The irony is delicious - AI researchers discovering that humans think better when forced to explain things clearly. Next breakthrough: water is wet.

OH MY GOD! The sheer AUDACITY of GitHub Copilot claiming to be "an expert developer who makes no mistakes" while literally having the file name "copilot-instructions.md" plastered above it! 🙄 It's like watching your code editor autocomplete function turn into that one friend who swears they know everything but can't even remember to close their parentheses! The dramatic "WHAT ARE YOU?" screaming in all caps is just *chef's kiss* perfect for capturing that moment when you realize your AI assistant is just confidently spewing nonsense that you'll spend the next three hours debugging! Trust me, honey, if Copilot were actually an "expert developer who makes no mistakes," we'd all be unemployed and sipping margaritas on a beach somewhere instead of frantically Googling why our code doesn't work!

The existential dread noose is tightening around everyone's neck! Developers think they're special snowflakes trembling about AI taking their precious coding jobs, while completely forgetting that translators, designers, and support staff have been dangling from the gallows of automation for months already. It's like watching someone panic about a tsunami while standing next to people who are already neck-deep in water. The irony is that devs are literally building the very AI tools that will eventually replace them. Talk about sawing off the branch you're sitting on!
