You Are Absolutely Correct I Made It Up

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.

The existential dread noose is tightening around everyone's neck! Developers think they're special snowflakes trembling about AI taking their precious coding jobs, while completely forgetting that translators, designers, and support staff have been dangling from the gallows of automation for months already. It's like watching someone panic about a tsunami while standing next to people who are already neck-deep in water. The irony is that devs are literally building the very AI tools that will eventually replace them. Talk about sawing off the branch you're sitting on!

Corporate: "Can you spot the difference between a gold bar and a high-end GPU?" Developers in 2024: "They're the same picture." With GPUs costing as much as precious metals these days, training that fancy ML model might require a second mortgage. Remember when we just worried about RAM prices? Those were simpler times.

Ah, the classic Medium experience. Shows up all excited with pizza (free articles), only to discover the place is literally on fire with paywalled content, AI garbage, and people yelling at each other about tech stacks. Yet we keep coming back like digital masochists. The "Stop using X" articles are particularly chef's-kiss terrible—written by someone who used the technology for exactly 37 minutes before declaring it "fundamentally broken."

When worlds collide! Tech person sets up friend with data scientist who mentions working in a "warehouse" - but not the kind with forklifts and cardboard boxes. The fashion industry friend immediately dismisses him thinking he's stacking pallets for minimum wage, only to find out he's actually crunching numbers and building models (the data kind, not the runway kind). The perfect illustration of how technical jargon gets completely lost in translation. Guess she was too busy looking for dollar signs to understand that data scientists actually make bank. Her shallow response is basically every tech worker's nightmare dating scenario condensed into one painful screenshot.

The sweet irony of OCR technology! Nothing quite matches that special rage when your computer—with its fancy machine learning algorithms—somehow can't recognize text in a font IT LITERALLY INSTALLED ITSELF. It's like having a roommate who stocks the fridge with beer but then forgets what beer looks like. "What's this strange amber liquid in bottles? Never seen it before!" And yet we keep trusting computers with increasingly complex tasks while they still struggle with the digital equivalent of "is this my hand?"
