The Power Proompter: AI's New Keyboard Warrior

Remember when 8GB VRAM was god-tier? Now it's the bare minimum for running those bloated AI models and rendering engines. $400 for entry-level specs that would've been flagship material a decade ago is the new normal. The hardware inflation is so bad that we're genuinely excited about mediocrity. Next we'll be celebrating when our IDE opens in under a minute.

The absolute state of enterprise software in 2024! This soap dispenser pumping directly onto a bar of soap perfectly captures how legacy companies implement AI - just slapping a chatbot on top of their ancient codebase without any actual integration. It's like putting racing stripes on a horse-drawn carriage and calling it "AI-powered transportation." The poor chatbot is just sitting there, desperately trying to make sense of 20-year-old spaghetti code written by developers who have long since retired to tropical islands.

Grammar correction in the wild. King declares himself "the dumbest man alive," only to be immediately dethroned when someone mentions "AI prompt engineering is the future." The true champion of ignorance has been found. Happens to the best of us—one minute you're the dumbest person in the room, then someone walks in talking about their revolutionary prompt that just says "make it good" with fifteen exclamation points.

OH. MY. GOD. The absolute AUDACITY of this AI model taking the question SO literally! 🤦‍♀️ Someone innocently asks how to import the pandas library (you know, that LIFE-SAVING Python data analysis package we'd literally DIE without), and this AI goes full dad-joke mode with "visit China or a zoo!" Meanwhile, every data scientist is SCREAMING into their mechanical keyboard: "IT'S JUST import pandas as pd YOU SILICON-BRAINED MONSTER!!!"

The future is now, old man! Someone's shocked that in 2025 some developers still write code without AI assistance, and Kenneth drops the mic with "yeah it's called programming." Remember when we used to solve problems with our brains instead of prompting ChatGPT? Pepperidge Farm remembers. Some devs still have the audacity to use their neurons instead of letting GitHub Copilot write their spaghetti code. The horror! It's like being surprised someone knows how to do math without a calculator. "You mean you're writing SQL queries WITHOUT letting AI hallucinate your database schema? What are you, a caveman?"

Claiming you've been using ChatGPT since 1996 is like saying you had WiFi in the Middle Ages. For the youngsters: that's Courage the Cowardly Dog typing on a chunky beige PC from when the internet made dial-up sounds that haunted your nightmares. Back then, "AI assistance" meant asking your roommate if they remembered the syntax for a for-loop while they were in the shower. The closest thing to ChatGPT was probably Clippy, and even he couldn't help you reverse a binary tree.
