There Will Be Signs

The ultimate dream isn't having AI code for you or do your laundry - it's having AI handle everything while you ascend to your final form: a professional couch potato. Why optimize workflows when you can eliminate them? The future isn't about productivity tools; it's about outsourcing your entire existence to algorithms so you can finally achieve humanity's true purpose: absolutely nothing. The singularity isn't something to fear - it's something to schedule your Netflix binges around.

Ah yes, the classic "medicine bottle labeled as ChatGPT" with a terrified new programmer staring at it. Remember when we had to actually learn how to code? Now junior devs just ask ChatGPT "write me a React component that fetches data and handles errors" and boom—instant senior developer! Back in my day, we debugged with print statements and cried ourselves to sleep reading documentation. The future is here, and it's making all those hours I spent memorizing syntax feel like a complete waste of time.

Backend engineers getting distracted by shiny machine learning tech while production bugs silently judge them from behind. Tale as old as git. We all swear we'll fix that NullPointerException right after we finish this "quick" TensorFlow tutorial that's only been open in a browser tab for 47 days.

The sacred men's room code: stare straight ahead, no talking, and definitely no AI productivity tool recommendations while someone's mid-stream. Nothing worse than being cornered at the urinal by the office AI evangelist explaining how GitHub Copilot will save your career with those made-up productivity percentages. Just let me pee in peace before telling me I'll be automated out of existence, thanks.

Oh. My. GOD. The absolute AUDACITY of this meme hitting us with the painful truth! 💀 First we've got programmers being called out for our sacred StackOverflow copy-paste rituals, then ChatGPT swoops in with that smug "Can you?" question like it's not ALSO just regurgitating code it learned from humans! And that final panel? That's literally all of us having our existential crisis when we realize AI might actually be coming for our jobs! The circle of theft is complete and we're all just sitting here contemplating our career choices while GitHub Copilot writes our next function. I can't even!

First half: "AI will destroy all programming jobs! Web dev is dead! DSA and MERN are obsolete! Only learn ML and chase trends! Stop coding!" Plot twist: "The more people panic and abandon ship, the more job security for those of us who know better." Classic fearmongering followed by the actual 4D chess move. Nothing creates better job security than convincing your competition to quit. The tech industry's version of "This beach is totally haunted, you should leave... alone... with all your picnic supplies."
