Joke on you ! I piggyback on real programmers to do the hard work and just assemble them in ugly mishmash and voilà ! "My" app.

Well, it has pretty much always been like this. Everytime a new hype is going around a lot of people jump the bandwagon and try to use shortcuts to get a piece of the supposedly prosperous job market pie. It was like this (still is) with "data science", before that it was like this with python, before that it was web design, and so on.

With it, you have a whole industry of content creators churning out ebooks and Youtube channels, Bootcamps which promise "become a xyz in 2/30/90 days", dubious certificates on online learning platforms and a surge of freelancers on freelance websites.

Even at universities there are a lot of people who aren't interested in actually learning anymore. While I do understand, it is quite sad and frankly concerning to watch.

Accurate if the top of the staircase was out of order and they just went crashing back down

Self taught and haven't dipped my toes too deeply into those algorithms. That said, I def bought a textbook on data science and machine learning. I've been throwing myself at it periodically and still haven't figured out how to make ChatGPT, or really any useful neural net lol

Me, implementing a UNO reverse card in assempler

(It's a joke, never worked with assempler but I hope I made my point)
