So I'm vibecoding this Android app, right? Real pajeet shit. I have no idea how to write Android apps. Who cares, right? It's 2026. Let AI do it.
I'm also talking to Grok on the side, asking it what features I should add to this thing. I added this one feature, doesn't matter what, and it took me about 5 minutes to tell Claude "Hey add this shit" and for it to deploy.
So just for fun, I asked Grok to calculate how many jobs I just erased - me, a person with zero Android experience, adding a feature to my stupid-ass vibecoded Android app in 5 minutes.
Grok thought for a while about freelance Android developers and hourly rates and college costs (I never went, high school diploma).
It concluded that in the five minutes it took me to add a feature to my app using AI, I displaced about $280 worth of white-collar labor, and put almost one (0.933) freelance Android developers out of work. In five minutes.
I could have hired YOU to add that feature for $280. But now your IT degree is worthless so I won't.
