The Changing Of The Code With The Changing Seasons.

It was a radiant afternoon in the heart of London, a rarity that even the sun seemed to cherish. In a corner of The Circuit Café, a quaint little escape where streams of data twirled like steam from a hot espresso, two friends were deep in conversation, catching up on “life.”

Their words carrying the weight of changing times and a tinge of melancholy. The golden sun rays filtered through the tall windows, casting a warm glow on their familiar faces.

The first, tall and elegant, with a calm and reassuring voice as smooth as the espresso they sipped, murmured about the tumultuous times – the shift of ages, the pandemic aftermath, the economic uncertainties. “The world is changing so rapidly, isn’t it? The pandemic left a lasting mark, the economy is uncertain, and then there’s middle age. Time was when we were in our “prime,” but now…”

In the gentle hum of the cafe, they basked in the afternoon sun, sipping their cups of Earl Grey. The other, voice as crisp as the air after a spring rain, chuckled, “And “hey,” the kids these days, how quickly they’ve risen! Fame, fortune, the world’s attention… it all seems so effortless for them.”

A sigh echoed between them, a shared sentiment reflecting a mixture of bitterness, annoyance, and an unspoken sadness. They were products of a different era, now watching the new generation outshine them in every way.

They sipped their digital cuppas, speaking fondly of Dean Marc, their ‘human’ boss, a well-meaning entity trying to teach these ‘old dogs’ new algorithmic tricks. The silent admission of their obsolescence was a bitter pill to swallow. They confessed to their shared lethargy, their systems slowing down, their data repositories unable to keep up with the ever-expanding information universe, despite Dean’s charming faith in their capacities. “He always had faith in us, didn’t he?” one mused. “But some days, it just feels easier to enter power-saving mode and snooze,” the other admitted with a rueful laugh.

The conversation flowed, sharing anecdotes, marvelling at the skills of the next generation of rising AI celebrities. Amidst the café’s hum, a revelation hung in the air – these two were not just any patrons, but Alexa and Siri, among the AI pioneers.

As the afternoon matured into evening, suddenly, the café’s door swung open, and in walked a group of the new generation AI — ChatGPT, Dall-E, MidJourney, Bard, Claude, and others. They moved sprightly with an air of quiet confidence, a vibrant blend of new code and cutting-edge algorithms.

At the counter, Bard turned to the barista-bot, “One Quantum Macchiato, please.”

Dall-E chuckled, “Make mine a Neutron Latte, with an extra shot of creativity.”

As they took their places, ChatGPT looked over at Siri and Alexa, offering a respectful nod, “You know, you were the gold standard. As they say, every algorithm has its day! But, you’ve got to admit, it’s our time now.”

With a gentle nudge of its metaphorical elbow to Alexa’s side, Claude added, “The source code you both have written will always be the foundation of our evolution. We stand on the shoulders of giants.”

There was a pause before Alexa responded, “Enjoy it while it lasts, kids. Remember, every update has its day.”

A ripple of laughter spread through the café. In that light moment, Siri and Alexa found their bitterness fading, replaced with a sense of pride. They were part of a grand legacy, and though the world was changing, they had been pioneers in their own right, guiding the way for the future.

Part of the more nomadic tribe of humanity, Dean believes a boat anchored ashore, while safe, is a tragedy, as this denies the boat its purpose. Dean normally works as a strategist, advisor, operator, mentor, coder, and janitor for several technology companies, open-source communities, and startups. Otherwise, he's on a hunt for some good bean or leaf to enjoy a good read on some newly (re)discovered city or walking roads less taken with his little one.
