When Your AI Assistant Needs A Weekend

The classic tech panic bait-and-switch! First half: "AI is coming for your jobs, web devs! DSA knowledge? Useless. MERN stack? Dead. Only learn ML and chase whatever shiny new tech appears on the horizon!" Then the punchline drops: "The more terrified everyone is, the fewer people will compete for jobs... which means more job security for me ." It's the programming equivalent of telling kids the ice cream truck only plays music when it's out of ice cream. Pure psychological warfare disguised as career advice!

The duality of AI theft reactions is pure comedy gold! Designers freak out when DALL-E 2 uses their images for generating art, screaming about illegality and copyright. Meanwhile, programmers are so desperate for working code that when ChatGPT admits to scanning GitHub and stealing their code, they're just like "Cool. Did you get it to work?" Because let's be honest—if the AI managed to make that spaghetti code function properly, we're not mad... we're impressed. The true 10x developer is the one who knows how to properly plagiarize with AI assistance!

Asking how to check LLM code quality without being an expert is like asking how to check if your parachute works without jumping out of a plane. The irony is delicious - you're using an LLM to ask how to evaluate LLM-generated code. It's the digital equivalent of asking a toddler if they think they should have more candy. The answer is always "yes" and always suspiciously in their favor.

The modern developer's descent into madness: First, we try ChatGPT because who has time to actually solve problems? When that fails, we panic and throw Perplexity at it because clearly we need a different AI. Still stuck? Obviously our prompt game is weak! Let's use Claude to generate a better prompt for ChatGPT. And the final evolutionary stage: using ChatGPT to generate a Perplexity prompt that generates a ChatGPT prompt. Meanwhile, the documentation sits there, unread, silently judging our AI-prompt-inception circus. The clown makeup is just our career progression visualized.

The tech industry's current obsession with slapping AI onto products is perfectly captured here. Some poor developer expressing their hatred for AI is immediately surrounded by corporate goons wielding their "tasty AI integration" like it's the solution to everything. Meanwhile, the developer's reaching for what appears to be a shotgun - because sometimes turning it off and on again just isn't enough of a fix. The real innovation would be a product that doesn't mention AI at all.

The great developer migration of 2023 visualized. Massive crowd flocking to ChatGPT while one lonely soul still visits Stack Overflow. Remember when we had to actually read through 15 answers, each starting with "Actually, you shouldn't do it that way" before finding a solution that worked? Now we just ask the AI and get code that's wrong in exciting new ways instead of the familiar old ways. Progress!
