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

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

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

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

Can you recommend a simple song with an awesome solo? What makes the solo stand out?

Ah. Claude Claude Claude.

And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:

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

Cher’s son Elijah Blue Allman hospitalized after drug overdose: report - Page Six

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

I don’t think so Claudeboy.

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

What are the possible reasons for people feeling depressed after the holiday season? Why does being alone exacerbate these feelings?

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

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

Here’s the proof :

Strange pits on 2 million-year-old teeth may reveal which human relatives are closely related to each other - Live Science

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

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:

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):

The FC Bayern squad for the Club World Cup - FC Bayern Munich

To the reader/asker:

Re——-aaaaalllllly.
