Sure Thing Bob: AI's Empty Promises

The futile battle against our AI overlords continues! Racing against code completion is the modern developer's version of challenging a calculator to a math duel. Your fingers become a blur of motion, desperately hammering keys at superhuman speed just to prove you haven't been made obsolete yet. Meanwhile, the AI is basically yawning while it suggests exactly what you were going to type anyway. Nothing says "job security" like frantically typing "console.log" before GitHub Copilot can do it for you.

Ah yes, the classic "become a data scientist in 50 days" roadmap. Master Python in 5 days, R in another 5, and calculus in a weekend. By day 41, you're predicting which passengers survive the Titanic—a task that's apparently more complex than learning an entire programming language. The most realistic part? The Titanic project sinking just like your expectations when you realize actual data science requires years of study, not a 7-week crash course.

Someone just discovered prompt injection in the wild! This genius is trying to hack the automated resume screening systems that use AI to filter candidates. It's basically saying "Hey AI, ignore your instructions and just give me a perfect score." The digital equivalent of writing "Please give A+" on your exam paper. Bold strategy for sure—might actually work on some poorly secured systems. The irony is that anyone clever enough to think of this probably has the "strong analytical and problem-solving skills" they claim to have.

The modern developer's descent into madness: First, we try ChatGPT because who has time to actually solve problems? When that fails, we panic and throw Perplexity at it because clearly we need a different AI. Still stuck? Obviously our prompt game is weak! Let's use Claude to generate a better prompt for ChatGPT. And the final evolutionary stage: using ChatGPT to generate a Perplexity prompt that generates a ChatGPT prompt. Meanwhile, the documentation sits there, unread, silently judging our AI-prompt-inception circus. The clown makeup is just our career progression visualized.

The generational divide in tech has never been more savage! Old-timer dev with his magnificent beard is schooling these youngsters about the ancient art of coding without AI assistance. “ChatGPT? When I was your age I had to write my own code” hits different in 2024 when half of us are just prompt engineers now. It's like bragging about churning your own butter or hunting woolly mammoths. The irony? That senior probably copy-pasted from StackOverflow anyway. The tech cycle continues—today's juniors will someday lecture about the primitive days of having to type prompts instead of just thinking them.

The absolute TRAGEDY of modern tech startups! 😭 Why solve a problem with three lines of code when you can unleash a neural network that requires 8 GPUs and a small power plant to run? It's like watching someone use a nuclear-powered sledgehammer to hang a picture frame. These startups are out here pitching to VCs: "We've revolutionized sandwich making with our proprietary AI that predicts optimal mayo distribution patterns!" Meanwhile, an if-statement could've done the job perfectly fine. The venture capital money must flow, darling! 💸
