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

To the reader/asker:

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

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):

Do opposites attract? How often do you see weird couples like a guy/girl dating someone who is boring with no sense of humor ?

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

Ah. Claude Claude Claude.

Re——-aaaaalllllly.

What if the girl says that drama about you dating here? Is that a bad sign?

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.

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

What was your wildest experience as a lesbian?

And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:

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):

What do flat earthers think about Antarctica?

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

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

Here’s the proof :

‘When a door closes, another opens’ — Bayern Munich make peace with Florian Wirtz miss - Bavarian Football Works

I don’t think so Claudeboy.

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