Plot twist: it’s already in every product… It’s the customer
It’s a CONFIDENT virtual dumbass who is constantly wrong.
So it has middle management written all over it!
oh god wheatley has taken control
It’s a very useful virtual dumbass, the problem is that the marketing idiots and managers keep touting it as the solution to all the problems you could possibly have.
You have to check what it tells you, but if you have absolutely no idea of what you are doing (e.g. me half the time) it’s a godsend as a “getting started” tutorial for most things
And on the first day, 8000 people on Linkedin update their skills to add “Virtualdumabssengineer.”

i vote we replace the CEOs with it. Its not like we would notice any changes though.
GPT for me is like having a coworker you can call up at any hour and ask about absolutely anything and they’ll always try to help. Often time they’ll be wrong – like people are – but they’ll just as happily discuss Typescript as Arduino projects or French history and which characteristics the lunar dust shares with cheese.
It’s a great way to bounce some ideas, get some input and get things rolling. Just as long as you actually verify everything with the actual docs and analyse the approach critically from different angles.
Then dangerous part it that if you’re a junior you’ll not have the experience to be suspicious and second guess even when it works. Which is what happens with real people too. The charismatic liers can get to the absolute top of the world. Even when we know they’re lying.
2022 ass joke
Replace your CEOs with ChatGPT. It’s the most suitable role.
I really can’t see it being wrong most of the time. For me, at least, while working with infrastructure as code, javascript, bash and aws, chatgpt has been really good.
Twitter, Tesla, spaceX, the boring company *in unison*: we already have that guy.
Nice repost of https://www.reddit.com/r/ProgrammerHumor/s/VLQxacoCFM
Is this a feature or a bug? Either way, it’s getting added to every new update. 🤣
Turns out, the customer has been the product all along
CS: we invented a technology that predicts an answer based on the context of a question using a plethora of information gathered from the internet.
Tech CEO: where does it source its information
CS: …. Reddit
Gemini: Put glue on pizza it’s good for you
I use chatgpt so much. It’s so convenient when you are completely lost on a problem and it gives you a blueprint on what to do.
X added it as the CEO.
All products had dumbasses who are constantly wrong long time before the LLMs were invented.
They are called Tech CEOs.
*ahem* camelCase
Please don’t tell me they’re adding social media to every product now.
A tech ceo would never say that, they’re never going to advocate that a machine should be doing CEO work
Guess what? The real product has always been the customer.
looks like we found clippy’s final boss form
Confidently wrong too!
It’s actually just a live feed of Elon’s Twitter account.
The “virtual dumbass” is just the CEO’s twitter account.
honestly, I use AI to better know what I should search for given my tech field has basically accumulated so much crap online trying to figure anything out is effort in itself and probably has led to many overcomplicated work arounds and redundant waste. Can I do ABC with tech XYZ? Neat.
bots posting about bots
Constantly meaning sometimes in this context right?
Aren’t they adding it to everything so that it can get better for free ? Then they call it learning so the consumer doesn’t realize they’re teaching a fucking robot how to take their job
All these tech companies gotta catch up to Google somehow
We’ll call it: “Power BA”
Plot twist, the personality is based on the CEO
It’s like digital clocks. Why do I need a clock on my f*cking toaster.
They really nailed the tech cycle in one sentence
If you could be truly constantly wrong that would be amazing. You just have to make sure you’re formulating your questions right
