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

Ah. Claude Claude Claude.

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

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

Possible GPD Win 5 spotted running AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 'Strix Halo' APU - Notebookcheck

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 ask Claude Sonnet 3.5, which is quite the advanced model (at par with Deepseek V3 R1 and GPT 4o) a very simple question:

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

Microsoft June 2025 Patch Tuesday fixes exploited zero-day, 66 flaws - BleepingComputer

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

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

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

Have you been with a stranger yet?

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

And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:

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

Has anyone been tricked into having sex with a shemale? How was the experience?

To the reader/asker:

I don’t think so Claudeboy.

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