hope this isnt a repeat. have a great weekend guys!!!!!
This never gets old...
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.
