Can machine learning and AI make programmers obsolete? Can AI make software coding and debugging a thing of the past?

Can machine learning and AI make programmers obsolete? Can AI make software coding and debugging a thing of the past?

Now, let’s think about that for a second or two. Such an elementary matter and such egregious error of omission!

And hey Claude? There’s a reserved float division /. if both numbers are floats, for sure (19) but so can one use // even though both are integers (20):

Ah. Claude Claude Claude.

Re——-aaaaalllllly.

And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:

Claude boy, how do I do division and modulus in OCaml?

What was your best experience of having your navel touched?

Agent, are you sure???? You’re lying again, aren’t you?

I don’t think so Claudeboy.

Here’s the proof :

Are you offended if Democrats call Republicans "weird"?

To the reader/asker:

And let’s use the latest, extra-capable model 4.1 from OpenAPI. The result:

Let’s ask Claude Sonnet 3.5, which is quite the advanced model (at par with Deepseek V3 R1 and GPT 4o) a very simple question:

You can do modulus with %. In fact, it’s the standard way to do it! (See command 17). And mod is deprecated (command 18):

And presto goes Claude, the clueless junior-dev (it also botched correctly showing //):

Your software developer job is safe for at least the next 100 years.

Why didn't people like the Game of Thrones ending?

As usual, I’ll make my point backed by verifiable examples.

Let’s use the agent to see if it can search at least, when it doesn’t know?
