Conference-swag Memes

Conference attendee sitting at their desk surrounded by enough AI swag to start a small museum, staring at their screen with the weight of a thousand unfinished side projects. Behind them, the Product Manager and Engineering Director loom like disappointed parents. The walls are plastered with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google DeepMind, and Hugging Face posters—basically a shrine to procrastination disguised as "staying current." The brutal truth: they don't want to actually build anything. They just need to check out the new LLMs. Because nothing says "productive engineer" like spending your entire week testing which AI model gives you the most creative excuse for not shipping features. The hype cycle chart in the background isn't just decoration—it's a lifestyle. That "Prompt Engineer" mug really ties the whole thing together. Chef's kiss.
