Can machine learning and AI make programmers obsolete? Can A...

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

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

Re——-aaaaalllllly.

Are there any political parties or groups that have a mix of conservative and liberal beliefs? Why are they not as prominent in the media?

To the reader/asker:

Here’s the proof :

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

Minnesota Vikings News and Links: Another Day OF OTAs! - Daily Norseman

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

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

I don’t think so Claudeboy.

Are cold plunges good for you? Here’s what the science says. - The Washington Post

Ah. Claude Claude Claude.

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

And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:

How would you define love?

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

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

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):

Man accused of writing Trump assassination letters was framed, officials say - BBC

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

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:

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