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

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

I don’t think so Claudeboy.

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!

And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:

Can you explain the concept of an annulment of marriage in the Roman Catholic Church and its effects on a previous marriage?

Here’s the proof :

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

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

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

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