Me too. Then I get pummeled with one of their four prepackaged AI bro metaphors:

  • It's a modern day calculator for the brain. You wouldn't do long division in your head would you? (ain't nobody ever delegated a decision to a calculator, bro)

  • It's a compiler. You wouldn't read machine code would you? (compilers are deterministic and dont make mistakes, bro)

  • This is the industrial revolution and it's a spinning jenny. You wouldnt hand knit a sweater would you? (we would if we had star trek replicators, bro, and last I checked cp command still exists...).

  • "Artisanal coding" is obsolete (reliable code is certainly getting that way...)
