Vibe Check: Debugging AI-Generated Spaghetti Code

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."

The classic "change my mind" format gets an AI twist. Guy's sitting there with his coffee, confidently declaring AI won't steal jobs—but with that crucial asterisk that people who actually know how to integrate it will be the ones doing the stealing. Meanwhile, there's literally an "Eden AI" paper on his table and a robot lurking in the background. The irony is thicker than legacy code comments. It's the perfect representation of the current tech landscape: those panicking about AI replacing developers versus those quietly building automation tools that make three developers do the work of thirty.

Ah yes, the classic executive who just discovered the term "data science" and now thinks anyone who can run a basic SQL query is suddenly a data scientist. Nothing says "I understand tech" quite like watching someone execute SELECT * FROM table and immediately asking if they should update their LinkedIn to "Senior ML Engineer." Meanwhile, actual data scientists with PhDs in statistics are quietly crying into their Jupyter notebooks.

GitHub Copilot: "I'll help you debug this code!" Also Copilot: *confidently points out a non-existent capitalization issue while completely missing the actual bug* It's like having a junior dev who speaks with absolute certainty while leading you down rabbit holes that waste hours of your life. The real bug is probably something completely different, but hey, at least Copilot made you feel productive for 5 seconds before crushing your soul. The AI revolution is here, folks - and it's just as confused as we are! 🤦‍♂️

Behold, the "ML Engineer" who discovered that Python sorts strings alphabetically instead of numerically! The horror! Next breaking news: water is wet. What we're witnessing here is the classic "I didn't read the docs but it's definitely the language's fault" syndrome. Python's sorted() is working perfectly—it's sorting ["9%", "83%", "25%"] as strings, exactly as it should when you give it strings. Pro tip for our aspiring "ML Engineer": try sorted([int(x.strip('%')) for x in a]) next time. Or maybe stick to Excel?

Ah, the classic "stepped in AI-generated SQL" moment! Every developer's nightmare when they look down and realize they've been walking through code that was auto-magically created by an AI. That sinking feeling when you discover your database is about to be obliterated by queries that technically work but are about as elegant as a drunk elephant trying to perform ballet. The AI confidently generated perfect syntactical garbage that'll run flawlessly while bringing your production server to its knees. It's like having a helpful assistant who organizes your closet by setting everything on fire. "But it compiled without errors!" 🔥
