I’m an artist, but I lived with three engineers in college and once had to go to a night class and take notes for one of them because I lost a bet. That one note-taking session gave me a huge appreciation for what engineers do.
Calling LLM querying bullshit “engineering” is monumentally stupid.
It’s so self-important
It took me 5 years of my life to obtain my M.Eng. and fucking Americans over there spray their diarrhea over their keyboards and think they’re the same. Fuck that shit.
Hello everyone did you need someone in here being a complete pedant? Here I am!
I would spell this slopperator, not sloperator. Putting only one consonant between O and E makes this read “SLOPE-r-ator”, like the slope of a hill. Also, there’s precedent, if you have a lot of slop, maybe you’re sloppy (two p’s).
Sloperator sounds like someone who really likes linear regression.
Was this an ai comment?
No, I wrote it myself.
It had a point and it made that point in one small paragraph with a little personality and no emojis or em-dashes.
I love that you’re saying “it” because it’s a dolphin.
lol dolphins can have gendered pronouns, but comments can’t.
Oh shit, I guess it makes sense lol. See, you can tell I’m not AI because I’m stupid sometimes
“Hello everyone did you need someone in here being a complete pedant? Here I am!”
This kind of pedantry is 100% not needed.
However, it absolutely is wanted. You’re wonderful, keep being you.
They’re a smooth opperator.
Opperator then too?
this is the kind of pedantry I can get behind
Hello, how mad do you get over the suffix “-copter”?
As “helicopter” is made of “helico” (~helix, twisty) + “pter” (wing).
I love you and respect you, but I still like ‘sloperator’ better.
The double p just looks too pretentious.
I think the slope rator misreading is an acceptable price to pay.
“That’s a very nice hill, 8/10.”
- Slope-rater
“Nice curves!”
Slopvangelical LLM thumper.
Also it’s not “vibe coding”, but “slopramming”.
Slop driven development
Slopelopment
Slop as a Service
I like the term “prompt fondler”.
Honestly I add AI related shit to my cv, we’ve no choice when it comes to corporation hell. If you’re a programmer it’s nearly impossible to avoid AI, I add “prompts, MCP, fine-tuning and GUFF”, but not “prompt engineer”.
I’m currently mentally (and physically) handicapped. I really hope a cure is found so that I can answer the question “Did you use AI for coding?” with “Yes, when I was mentally handicapped.”
Dude you almost made me spit out my food, ahahahahah
Someone please send this to Merriam-Webster

It’s not AI, it’s neural network simulation, nothing fancy, just chain of ponderated nods
So from now
AI→ NSANN (artificial neural networks) is the more accepted terminology
Maybe accepted but still inaccurate, it’s a simulation, not a proper artificial network, which, by definition, would be a proper “hardware”.
And for the “artificial” term, I don’t know, everything humanity does is artificial, so it’s a bit superfluous.
There is no way people are actually calling themselves prompt engineers. I refuse
Someone at work unironically said we should hire one
me leaving that meeting
Prompt monkey
My friend came up with “promptologist,” which goes well with all the AI butthole logos
I saw a comment calling them a prompstitute
As an engineer, if i hear someone say they are a prompt engineer they’re getting slapped
I mean, I think we’d all appreciate it if you built a trebuchet instead
With a mechanical chicken slapper?
