Technical skills Memes

So here's the beautiful irony: students who used AI for homework got absolutely wrecked when exam season rolled around. Their scores dropped by nearly half because—surprise—copy-pasting from ChatGPT doesn't actually teach you anything. Who could've seen that coming? But wait, there's more! The post goes on to compare this to the software industry, where we're all speedrunning toward a dystopian future. Teams are shipping features in Month 18 that nobody understands because the original dev rage-quit and left behind an AI-generated codebase that reads like a fever dream. Commercial pilots are now glorified passengers because autopilot does everything—until it doesn't, and then everyone dies. The kicker? Someone in the comments dares to suggest that maybe, just maybe, being skilled at your craft matters more than having fancy tools. And naturally, they get called a Luddite for it. Because apparently wanting to understand what you're doing instead of blindly trusting the robot overlords makes you a backwards technophobe. The three rules at the end are chef's kiss: "Quick wins feel good. Sustainable engineering feels boring." Translation: we're all choosing the dopamine hit of AI autocomplete over actually knowing our systems, and future us is gonna be SO screwed when the house of cards collapses.
