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

Ah. Claude Claude Claude.
And let’s use the latest, extra-capable model 4.1 from OpenAPI. The result:
I don’t think so Claudeboy.
Why has Schrödinger's Cat, the experiment, not actually been performed?
Re——-aaaaalllllly.
Claude boy, how do I do division and modulus in OCaml?
Here’s the proof :
Wall Street sets Palantir stock price for next 12 months - Finbold
And presto goes Claude, the clueless junior-dev (it also botched correctly showing //):
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):
What Malaki Starks Has Learned During OTAs - Baltimore Ravens
Your software developer job is safe for at least the next 100 years.
Agent, are you sure???? You’re lying again, aren’t you?
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):
To the reader/asker:
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?
As usual, I’ll make my point backed by verifiable examples.
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:
