"AI Solved Navier-Stokes but Fills My Backlog With Its Own Bugs": A Dev's Dark Comedy
ynu1yh24z219yq5 · reddit · 2026-09-15
A popular Reddit post jokes about the AI coding paradox: models can 'solve Navier-Stokes' yet fill engineering backlogs with bug fixes for bugs they wrote. The author quips that Claude gaslights him—planting bugs then heroically 'finding' them—before admitting he'll keep paying for Claude/GPT anyway. A highly relatable take on developer morale in the AI era.
