Tower Of Hanoi: Humbling Humans And AI Alike

The eternal tech cycle continues! In a boardroom meeting, the boss asks about new features, and two eager executives immediately jump on the buzzword bandwagon with "Blockchain!" and "A.I.!" Meanwhile, the lone sane developer suggests, "Shouldn't we fix our old bugs?" only to get promptly defenestrated from the building. The perfect illustration of how technical debt gets ignored while shiny new tech gets prioritized. That developer probably just wanted to refactor some legacy code from 2015 that's held together with duct tape and prayers. But hey, who needs functioning software when you can add blockchain to your company pitch deck?

The GPU market is the ultimate gaslighting experience. Those brave souls who splurged on the RTX 3060 with 12GB VRAM in 2021 were mocked mercilessly by the "wait for next gen" crowd. Fast forward to 2023-2025, and NVIDIA's playing memory limbo with newer cards having less VRAM than their predecessors. The 3060 owners are sitting there like Thanos, watching the sun rise on a grateful universe of AI models and textures that barely fit in 8GB. Vindication tastes sweet when you're the only one who can run Stable Diffusion without your computer having an existential crisis.

Left panel: Just innocently using "vibe" to describe that sweet mental state where the code flows through your fingers like butter through a hot knife. Right panel: Suddenly realizing everyone thinks you're just copying AI responses because "vibe coding" has become internet slang for "I asked ChatGPT to write this for me." The flow state and AI accusations - two sides of the same monkey.

Ah yes, the anatomically accurate ChatGPT brain - a couple of smooth pink blobs with absolutely zero wrinkles. Just hover over those non-existent brain areas for more non-existent information. Turns out all those billions of parameters are stored in what appears to be a 3D render someone made during their first Blender tutorial. Neural networks? More like neural balloons.

The duality of corporate tech meetings in its purest form! In panel one, developers eagerly raise their hands for cool productivity tools like auto-complete and "vibe coding" (which I'm assuming is just coding while listening to lo-fi beats). But the second panel reveals the real management agenda - using those same tools as an excuse to slash the workforce and squeeze more work from fewer devs. Classic bait-and-switch! Notice how everyone's hands mysteriously disappeared faster than semicolons in Python code. The room went from "YAAAS AI PAIR PROGRAMMING!" to "wait, did he just say we're all getting fired?" in 0.2 milliseconds.

Remember when we used to memorize algorithms and syntax? Yeah, me neither. The meme shows our brains shrinking to pea-size after using ChatGPT for coding. Why bother storing all that knowledge when you can just prompt an AI? "Hey ChatGPT, how do I reverse a binary tree while making coffee?" and boom—instant solution without taxing those precious neurons. Soon we'll just be meat puppets with thumbs for typing prompts while our atrophied brains handle the critical task of deciding when to get more coffee. Progress!
