I let it get out of control. One day, I snapped and couldn't deal with junior PHP developers running around LinkedIn posting slop everywhere to sound important. After this, everyone in PHP-land knows me as "The PHP Bot Guy", which grabbed the attention of The PHP Foundation. I am now actively working with the PHP Foundation by writing the strategy for it's Outreach outside the PHP space.
The thing is: this isn't a PHP talk. It's a far bigger problem: we are becoming more stupid, more lazy than ever before. Anti intellectualism has somehow won, so I'm fighting back to make the tech industry less rubbish.

Session Type: Talk
The year is 2026. We were promised hoverboots. That did not become the world we live in.
The world we live in is teaching every developer that they must be an influencer of some sort, for some reason, and AI has arrived to help us do it.
Join me on a quite frankly ridiculous journey, as I delve into the world of attempting to look at the top of your game, while actually showing everyone that you believe Arrays start at 1.
We are looking for sponsors!
Sponsors make this conference possible, we're actively looking for people to support!
