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

Ah. Claude Claude Claude.

Here’s the proof :

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

SpaceX adds 27 Starlink satellites to constellation after successful launch from California (video) - Space

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):

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

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

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

I don’t think so Claudeboy.

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.

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:
