I have a boss who tells us weekly that everything we do should start with AI. Researching? Ask ChatGPT first. Writing an email or a document? Get ChatGPT to do it.

They send me documents they “put together” that are clearly ChatGPT generated, with no shame. They tell us that if we aren’t doing these things, our careers will be dead. And their boss is bought in to AI just as much, and so on.

I feel like I am living in a nightmare.

    I am reminded of this article.

    The future of web development is AI. Get on or get left behind.

    5/5/2025

    Editor’s Note: previous titles for this article have been added here for posterity.

    The future of web development is blockchain. Get on or get left behind.

    The future of web development is CSS-inJS. Get on or get left behind.

    The future of web development is Progressive Web Apps. Get on or get left behind.

    The future of web development is Silverlight. Get on or get left behind.

    The future of web development is XHTML. Get on or get left behind.

    The future of web development is Flash. Get on or get left behind.

    The future of web development is ActiveX. Get on or get left behind.

    The future of web development is Java applets. Get on or get left behind.

    If you aren’t using this technology, then you are shooting yourself in the foot. There is no future where this technology is not dominant and relevant. If you are not using this, you will be unemployable. This technology solves every development problem we have had. I can teach you how with my $5000 course.

      PWAs are cool af and widely used for publishing apps on the App/Play stores. It’s a shame they haven’t been adopted more widely for their original purpose of installing apps outside of those stores, but you can’t get everything you want.
