api Memes

Someone just discovered AI and decided to use it for... checking if numbers are even. You know, that incredibly complex problem that's stumped humanity for centuries and definitely requires a large language model API call instead of a simple modulo operation. The first few rows show manual answers (No, Even, No, Yes) like a normal human would do it. Then row 8 hits and suddenly it's =GEMINI("Is this number even?",A8) all the way down. Someone's burning through their API quota to solve what could've been =MOD(A8,2)=0 . This is what happens when you have a hammer (AI) and everything looks like a nail. Next week they'll probably be using GPT-4 to add two numbers together. The cloud bills are gonna be *chef's kiss*.

When tech buzzwords get the geographic treatment. The joke here is redefining popular tech acronyms through an India-centric lens, poking fun at both outsourcing stereotypes and the prevalence of Indian talent in tech. The progression is chef's kiss: AI becomes "An Indian," API turns into "A Person in India" (because who needs REST when you can just call Rajesh), LLM gets downgraded to "Low-cost Labour in Mumbai" (ouch but accurate commentary on outsourcing economics), and AGI becomes "A Genius Indian" (because let's be real, half of Silicon Valley runs on Indian engineering talent). But the real punchline? GPT as "Gujarati Professional Typist" – because apparently all those tokens we're generating are just someone in Gujarat with really fast typing skills. Forget neural networks and transformer architecture; it's just a dude with a mechanical keyboard and exceptional WPM. The meme brilliantly satirizes both the tech industry's obsession with acronyms and the reality that India has become synonymous with tech workforce, from call centers to cutting-edge AI development.

Oh, how the times have changed! In 2020, we were writing our own isOdd() function with a cascade of if statements like absolute savages. Fast forward to 2025, and we're just outsourcing our brain cells to OpenAI's API. Sure, the 2020 approach was inefficient and borderline ridiculous (just use num % 2 !== 0 , you monsters!), but at least it didn't cost $0.002 per API call. Progress? Maybe. But our wallets are definitely feeling the difference between "free but stupid" and "smart but expensive." The real tragedy is that somewhere out there, a junior dev is actually implementing this in production right now.

Ah, the modern tech hero's journey: "I wrote a prompt, AI generated an API, and now I'm basically the next unicorn founder." Sure buddy, and I once wrote a regex that worked on the first try – doesn't mean I'm Jeff Bezos. The gap between "my AI prompt worked once" and "billion-dollar company" is roughly the same as the gap between "I installed Linux" and "I now run NASA." Those compute bills will hit harder than the reality that prompt engineering isn't the same as actually engineering. Ten years in the trenches and I've learned one truth: the harder someone humble-brags about how easy something was, the more spectacularly it'll explode in production.
