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

To the reader/asker:

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

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

Can you show your wet and dripping pussy?

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

I don’t think so Claudeboy.

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:

How do you say "I don't speak French yet, but I hope to speak it well one day. It would be a pleasure to learn French with you. Would you like to teach me French?" in French? Could you add audio?

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

Here’s the proof :

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

Adults with ADHD face long-term social and economic challenges, study finds — even with medication - PsyPost

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

And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:

Ah. Claude Claude Claude.

How can I have an overnight glow-up for school?

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

Re——-aaaaalllllly.

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

Charting the Global Economy: US GDP Falls on Larger Trade Hit - Bloomberg

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):
