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

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

Here’s the proof :

And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:

Why does my vagina and around my butthole itch? I don't have weird discharge and I'm still a virgin.

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:

To the reader/asker:

Does CloudFlare protect blackhat sites from DDOS attacks?

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.

I don’t think so Claudeboy.

Chime, last valued at $25B, aims for $11B in upcoming IPO - TechCrunch

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):

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

What are incels doing wrong?

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.

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

What are the top AI business ideas for beginners?

Re——-aaaaalllllly.

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