Client: “We need an app that tracks live birds using AI.”
Me: “Cool, that’s complex. What’s the timeline?”
Client: “We need it before our annual picnic next week.”
Me: “You want an AI that can detect flying birds, in real time, in seven days?”
Client: “It’s not that hard. Just use ChatGPT or something.”
So now I’m here, watching pigeons on my balcony, manually updating a Google Sheet, calling it “AI prototype v1.0.”
I think I’ve finally achieved “Agile Enlightenment” — deliver results, not features.
Client’s happy.
My soul isn’t.
Time to rename the project: BirdBrain.6 -
musician friend (or it isn't really just friend anymore) puts out a new album. tells me one of the songs are for me.
at the end there's an "I love you", and today I heard another one earlier on in the song, barely a whisper.

Replit went from a GREAT collaborative coding (/ developing; it had VCS, integration with deployment services...) to a burden of an AI-centric platform???
Horrible! What do you mean I can't set up an environment by myself? And I had to fiddle to find how to see the files, once it stopped "thinking", "trying", "failing" and "reading documentation" to create a simple Python playground I could've got with a couple clicks some years ago. 💀
I don't even want to see what happened to my old projects...
This was the first time the invasiveness of an AI implementation actually got in my way and made me lose more than the seconds it takes to press one or two close buttons.
Having cooled off a little, maybe it still is the great service I remember, but man... heaving to "ask" for a guessing tool to do what I already know how to do exactly... not a good thing.2 -
