When AI Offers To Help But Excel Has Other Plans

OH. MY. GOD. The AUDACITY of GitHub Copilot! 😤 You're sitting there BEGGING this AI to write a simple function and it's like "hmm, I don't quite understand what you want" while you're SCREAMING at your screen! Just show me the freaking code I'm trying to write instead of making me describe it in 47 different ways! It's like trying to explain a recipe to someone who keeps asking "but what IS flour?" JUST WRITE THE DARN CODE ALREADY! I've spent more time trying to get Copilot to understand what I want than it would have taken to write the whole program myself! The digital equivalent of trying to give directions to someone who keeps turning down the radio because they "see with their ears." 💀

When you spent years mastering tree inversions in C++ with all those pointer gymnastics, memory leaks, and segmentation faults only to watch some kid ask ChatGPT to do it in 5 seconds. The audacity. The betrayal. Back in my day, we debugged with print statements and cried silently into our mechanical keyboards.

The judgmental stare of an impala when your code looks like a teenager's diary. That moment when you submit a PR with more emojis than actual logic, and the reviewer's soul visibly leaves their body. The code might run, but at what cost to human dignity? Nothing says "I definitely wrote this myself and didn't use AI" like commenting every line with a different animal emoji and explaining obvious functions with "this makes the thing do the thing." The reviewer isn't mad, just disappointed... and questioning their career choices.

The tech industry's obsession with AI in a nutshell. Companies rebrand basic algorithms as "AI" while VCs throw money at anything with those two magical letters. Meanwhile, developers watching from the sidelines know it's just another overhyped technology that'll eventually join blockchain and NFTs in the graveyard of "revolutionary paradigm shifts." The corporate world can't tell the difference because they're too busy adding "AI-powered" to their pitch decks to secure that sweet, sweet funding.

The great AI career pivot of 2025! While MBAs panic about ChatGPT stealing their PowerPoint jobs, developers are quietly rebranding themselves as "AI Experts" after watching two YouTube tutorials and adding a few API calls to their resume. Nothing says job security like slapping "AI" in front of your job title and charging triple your hourly rate. The best part? The MBA who demanded "AI integration" in your app can't tell the difference between actual machine learning and an if-statement with extra steps.
