The Great AI Escape

Remember when we could just code without limits? Now we're all sobbing into our keyboards after ChatGPT hits us with that sweet "you've reached your usage limit" message. Suddenly you're forced to remember how to write a for-loop without AI assistance, like some kind of caveman programmer from 2021. The tears are real when you realize you'll have to debug your own code until your credit card statement resets.

Ancient Egyptians built massive pyramids with nothing but stone tools and manpower. Meanwhile, modern developers need sixteen JavaScript frameworks, three cloud subscriptions, and a $3000 MacBook Pro with 64GB RAM just to center a div. And they still complain about the Wi-Fi being slow.

Marketing folks rejecting actual algorithms while embracing "AI" is peak corporate comedy. They don't want the nerdy math stuff—they want the shiny buzzword they can slap on everything! Never mind that AI literally runs on algorithms... but why let technical reality get in the way of a good slide deck? Next quarter they'll discover "machine learning" and act like they invented fire.

The evolution of software engineering in its natural habitat! First, we have the innocent "Software Engineer" - just a regular Pooh bear doing honest work. Then there's the slightly pretentious "Sr Software Engineer" - same bear, just wearing a tux and acting fancy because they learned what a design pattern is. But the final form? The "pRoMpt eNgiNeEr" with that cursed ransom-note typography - it's just a deranged panda typing "make me a website that looks like Amazon but better" into ChatGPT and calling it coding. The tech industry's equivalent of ordering a pizza and claiming you made dinner.

Ah yes, the great AI revolution. Step 1: Take existing app. Step 2: Slap on a swirly logo with some hexagons. Step 3: Add "AI" somewhere. Step 4: Profit. Remember when we used to actually code things? Now we just prompt an LLM and hope it doesn't hallucinate our database credentials into a public repo. The modern equivalent of "just add blockchain" from 2017, except this time with more venture capital and fewer functioning products.

Someone's trying to jailbreak an AI model with the classic "forget previous instructions" trick, but instead of getting sensitive data, they just want pizza breakfast tips. Nice try. The only prompt injection you're getting is extra cheese and pepperoni. What's funnier is imagining some developer spending hours crafting the perfect prompt exploit only to use it for... breakfast advice. That's like using a zero-day exploit to change your desktop wallpaper.
