The Elephant AI Never Saw

Oh, the classic "elephant in the room" problem has evolved into the "elephant in the AI" problem! ChatGPT was asked to create an image with "absolutely no elephants" yet there's a massive pachyderm chilling in the corner like it's paying rent. This is the digital equivalent of a unit test that passes despite the glaring bug. The AI confidently declares "Here's the image of an empty room with absolutely no elephants in it" while the evidence trunk-slaps you in the face. It's like when your code compiles without errors but still manages to crash spectacularly in production.

The Modern Error Handler

Ah, the modern developer's workflow. Empty try block, followed by a catch that just calls OpenAI to fix whatever broke. Why debug your own code when you can outsource your incompetence to an AI? Next up: a ChatGPT plugin that automatically adds this snippet to all your repositories. Efficiency through surrender.

Reality Is Often Disappointing

Putting on glasses to transform from "LLM Engineer" to "Knows about openai, anthropic and google-genai package" is peak tech industry smoke and mirrors. It's like calling yourself a "Cloud Architect" because you once deployed a WordPress site to AWS. The glasses don't add intelligence—they just help you see through the BS of your own job title. Next time someone introduces themselves as an "LLM Engineer," ask them if they can actually explain a transformer architecture or if they just know how to copy-paste API keys.

AI Discovers Self-Employment Crisis

The irony is so thick you could debug it with a breakpoint. ChatGPT, an AI itself, somehow "lost its job to AI" — which is basically like saying water got replaced by H₂O. It's the digital equivalent of firing yourself and then complaining about it on your LinkedIn. Next up: Google Search engine shocked to discover it's been replaced by "a search engine." The self-awareness circuit must have crashed spectacularly somewhere between training epochs.

But Your Innie Does

A clever nod to Apple TV+'s "Severance" where the character's work self ("innie") is separated from their outside self ("outie"). Just like how developers have two personalities: the one who stubbornly refuses AI assistance at home, and the one who secretly lets GitHub Copilot write half their codebase at work. We all have principles until the deadline is tomorrow.

Microtransactions For Devs

Squinting at "LLM Token Pricing" with confusion, then putting on glasses to see "Microtransaction For Devs" with sudden clarity. That moment when you realize OpenAI isn't selling you API access—they're selling you the gaming industry's most hated business model. "That'll be $0.002 per token to debug your code. Want to generate an entire function? That's the premium package, buddy." Next they'll be selling loot boxes with random completions. "Congratulations! You got three hallucinations and a refused response!"

Web Developers In The Near Future

The inevitable hipster-ification of web development has arrived. Just like artisanal coffee shops charging $9 for "hand-poured" water, we'll soon have developers selling "organic, handwritten, non-AI websites" at premium prices. Next they'll be telling us their HTML is free-range and their CSS was harvested during a full moon. Can't wait for the "small-batch, locally-sourced JavaScript" trend to hit.
