Programmer Humor

I know there's a temptation to call "skill issue" when you see anecdotal evidence that runs counter to your own experience, but I can say with some degree of professional certainty and a smidge of personal snark that no, I in fact do know what I'm doing. These tools have their uses, but their general applicability is vastly overstated (if I were the kind of cynical person that enjoyed being right, I would say intentionally overstated in an effort to attain profitability on bootstraps made of hype). And I wanna clarify that I do indeed use some AI tools (ex: security checkers) with regularity. They do absolutely have worth - they just don't have trillions of dollars worth... of worth. Ahem.

The hype-doomer thing that some people have about this, oh woe it's going to destroy an entire conceptual industry, that just isn't what's happening, but it's very much what the advertising would like you to believe it's doing.
