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

Ah. Claude Claude Claude.
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):
And presto goes Claude, the clueless junior-dev (it also botched correctly showing //):
Which is better for your skin red light therapy or blue light therapy?
Claude boy, how do I do division and modulus in OCaml?
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:
Apple details the end of Intel Mac support and a phaseout for Rosetta 2 - Ars Technica
Re——-aaaaalllllly.
Now, let’s think about that for a second or two. Such an elementary matter and such egregious error of omission!
To the reader/asker:
Do you realize people believe that story about Taylor Swift? Do you not say it is satire?
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):
Your software developer job is safe for at least the next 100 years.
How far back into your childhood can your remember and what is your favorite memory of that time?
And let’s use the latest, extra-capable model 4.1 from OpenAPI. The result:
I don’t think so Claudeboy.
And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:
What led Megan to marry into the Royal Family despite her successful acting career in Hollywood?
Let’s use the agent to see if it can search at least, when it doesn’t know?
Agent, are you sure???? You’re lying again, aren’t you?
