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

Here’s the proof :

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

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

And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:

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

Ah. Claude Claude Claude.

Which Bibles can one read and be confident they are reading the inerrant word of God?

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

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

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):

Here's what happens when quark-gluon plasma 'splashes' during the most energetic particle collisions - Phys.org

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

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

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:

Why do some straight men like to suck dick but don't find other males attractive?

To the reader/asker:

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

I don’t think so Claudeboy.

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