  1. Lmao.

  2. They were "troubleshooting a basic web app" - this is something you'd hear from someone learning how to program, not someone who runs a youtube channel trying to make a brand from programming.

  3. In doing so, they needed to "clear their cache" by which they mean... their browser cache? webserver cache? idk but something that shouldn't be so difficult that you'd delegate to an LLM (nor something an LLM should get so horribly wrong).

  4. All that aside, I can see that being some wide eyed naïve moron would let you believe in the magic for a little bit. Truly, I've been there. What gets me is how they trail off their reddit thread quoting what appears to be verbatim LLM marketing output about how they were the catalyst for Google putting guardrails on the rm -rf generator which they're not even paying for. Google really cares about you, my sweet special sunbeam.

Fuck me, AI slop coders are finding out in real time.
