This meme is poking fun at beginner developers who think they've accomplished something impressive when they've really just done something super basic.
In the conversation, someone brags that they "just downloaded Cursor" (which is a code editor with AI features) and claims "anyone can be an engineer now." They follow up saying they "literally built something in minutes" which sounds impressive...
But the punchline is when they share what they built: http://localhost:3000/ — which is just the default local development server address that comes pre-configured with most modern web frameworks like React, Vue, etc.
It's like someone saying they "built a house" when all they did was open the front door to a pre-built home. The joke captures the dunning-kruger effect in programming where beginners sometimes don't realize how little they know.
The title "aiProgrammers" adds another layer, suggesting that AI tools like Cursor are giving people a false sense of programming ability when they're just using templates or boilerplate code.
