This is snark. Since when has a junior level dev managed to debug and deploy say a cloudformation stack and follow up with notes under 3 minutes?

Heard this analogy elsewhere, but worth repeating:

AI is like having the greatest developer who ever lived, but she is always on 4 beers.

personifying ai is incredibly cringe no matter how weird your comparison is
It's an analogy.
that’s the personification i’m referring to, yes. incredibly weird.
Imagine a drunk developer. Sparks of brilliance while missing obvious trees.
I know of a publicly traded company which in its early years was built on beer. Literally. 3 guys in a co-working space in Cambridge, MA. Beer fueled their progress. 15 years later the software is still the backbone of the org.
weird.
