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

Agent, are you sure???? You’re lying again, aren’t you?
And presto goes Claude, the clueless junior-dev (it also botched correctly showing //):
Your software developer job is safe for at least the next 100 years.
'There's a huge amount that we don't understand': Why sperm is still so mysterious - BBC
Now, let’s think about that for a second or two. Such an elementary matter and such egregious error of omission!
And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:
And let’s use the latest, extra-capable model 4.1 from OpenAPI. The result:
Bank of America predicts major housing market changes are coming soon - TheStreet
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:
I don’t think so Claudeboy.
Re——-aaaaalllllly.
To the reader/asker:
Here’s the proof :
Let’s use the agent to see if it can search at least, when it doesn’t know?
Assumenda assumenda cum ducimus iste enim eos dolores molestiae.
Ah. Claude Claude Claude.
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 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):
Claude boy, how do I do division and modulus in OCaml?
As usual, I’ll make my point backed by verifiable examples.
