Coding in 2022 vs 2027

coding in 2022 JS stringUtils.js × 1 function startsWithCapitalLetter(str) { 2 return str.length > 0 && str[0] === str[0].toUpperCase(); 3 } coding in 2027 JS stringUtils.js × 1 import Anthropic from '@anthropic-ai/sdk'; 2 3 const anthropic = new Anthropic({ 4 apiKey: process.env.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, 5 }); 6 7 export async function startsWithCapitalLetter(str) { 8 const prompt = `You are a capitalization expert. 9 You have been studying capitalization for years 10 11 Text to analyze: """${str}""" 12 13 Respond with ONLY "true" or "false". 14 Is the first letter of the text a capital letter?`; 15 16 const response = await anthropic.messages.create({ 17 model: 'claude-mythos-1-20261225', 18 max_tokens: 5000000, 19 temperature: 0, 20 thinking: 'ultramaxmegathink', 21 messages: [{ role: 'user', content: prompt }], 22 }); 23 24 const answer = response.content[0].text.trim().toLowerCase(); 25 return answer === 'true';

The meme contrasts a simple JavaScript function in 2022 with an absurdly overengineered 2027 version that calls Anthropic's API and uses an enormous prompt to determine whether text starts with a capital letter. The joke mocks how basic programming tasks may become unnecessarily dependent on AI, huge token budgets, and elaborate reasoning. It is used as a reaction to AI overengineering and the future absurdity of coding.
