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

To the reader/asker:

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

Ah. Claude Claude Claude.

How can The Telegraph criticize US debt as a 'danger to the global economy' when the UK government is also drowning in debt?

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

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

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:

How do I build muscle easily with isometrics?

Re——-aaaaalllllly.

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):

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

Why are women attracted to ugly guys?

Here’s the proof :

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

And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:

Will AI and ChatGPT AI render obsolete 99% of all lawyers and law schools in the world by 2030 and 2035?

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

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

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

If you cloned 12 Michael Jordan's and 12 LeBron James' and had Team Jordan vs. James, which team would win the most games?

I don’t think so Claudeboy.

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