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!

Here’s the proof :

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

Hey girls can we see some anal play?

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

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

Ah. Claude Claude Claude.

Citing storm delays, Chelsea coach asks whether some American cities are "the right place" to play - NBC Sports

And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:

I don’t think so Claudeboy.

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

Switch 2 Tears Of The Kingdom Confirms Link Respects Women - Kotaku

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):

To the reader/asker:

Re——-aaaaalllllly.

VMware drops the lowest tier of its partner program – except in Europe - theregister.com

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

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:

What would happen if the Soviet Union had simply annexed Manchuria after World War 2 or kept it independent as a puppet state allied them and separate from China as China was too weak too oppose it anyway?

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

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

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