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

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

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

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

Why do people turn a blind eye to bad behaviour if someone is very good looking? Whereas if someone is ugly, they get harshly judged for everything?

Re——-aaaaalllllly.

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

Here’s the proof :

Jim Cramer says these hot new stocks are ones to watch - TheStreet

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

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

To the reader/asker:

Can ringing in the ears be a sign of spiritual awakening?

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):

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

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:

NASA astronaut aboard ISS captures colorful aurora in time-lapse footage of Earth from space (video) - Space

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

Ah. Claude Claude Claude.

And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:

Who will benefit most from DeepSeek, the Chinese AI startup that is laying waste to US stocks? Who will be hurt the most?

I don’t think so Claudeboy.

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

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