Can machine learning and AI make programmers obsolete? Can A...

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:

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

I don’t think so Claudeboy.

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.

Is AI secretly replacing your job right now without you knowing it? What do you think? Do you agree?

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

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

And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:

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.

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:

Re——-aaaaalllllly.

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

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

Here’s the proof :

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