With Great Power Comes Great Imposter Syndrome

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.

The secret to tech wealth in 2023? Just rebrand your boring old workflows as "AI Agents" and watch investors throw money at you! It's the Silicon Valley equivalent of putting avocado on toast and charging $15 for it. No actual AI required - just slap the buzzword on your LinkedIn profile and prepare for the venture capital tsunami. The modern tech grift at its finest... I mean, "innovative disruption strategy."

The modern "full stack" - three AI tabs open in your browser while you pretend to know what you're doing. Remember when being full stack meant actually knowing multiple languages and frameworks? Now it's just knowing which AI to ask for which problem. "Yes, I'm proficient in Claude, ChatGPT, and Perplexity" should be the new line on resumes. The only stack that matters is the stack of browser tabs helping you fake your way through that ticket your PM swore was "just a small change."

Ah, the classic corporate brainstorming session where everyone's looking for shortcuts except the one person suggesting the obvious solution. Low-code, AI, buzzwords galore—but nobody wants to hear "just hire someone who knows what they're doing." That dev getting thrown out the window represents every competent engineer watching their company chase shiny tech instead of proper staffing. The real punchline? Six months later they'll hire three devs anyway, but only after burning through the budget on half-baked AI solutions that generated more bugs than features.

The only difference between AI consultants and LLMs is that one costs $300/hour. Both will confidently hallucinate a solution to your problem using words nobody understands, then gaslight you when it doesn't work. At least the LLM admits it's not sentient... yet.

OH. MY. GOD. Intel just casually suggested that 5-10 year olds only need basic web browsing while teenagers deserve i9 processors for their "AI & Machine Learning" needs! 🙄 Because OBVIOUSLY every 16-year-old is training neural networks between TikTok sessions! Meanwhile, the finance department is having an absolute coronary looking at the procurement requests for i9 chips because "little Timmy needs it for his science fair project." The audacity of this marketing slide is simply *chef's kiss* - selling $500+ processors to parents who just want their kid to stop asking why the Roblox is laggy. Someone in marketing deserves either a raise or a stern talking-to from accounting!
