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

Here’s the proof :

I don’t think so Claudeboy.

And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:

Why is my vagina swollen, it’s very itchy. I had sex we used protection, but day after it felt like my insides had a heartbeat as well as itching, the pulsing has went away but it is still itchy and my discharge is yellow, i'm 15, what could it be?

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

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

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

What is the experience of wearing a school uniform every day? Do people typically get used to it or dislike it?

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

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):

Ah. Claude Claude Claude.

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

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:

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

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