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

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

Re——-aaaaalllllly.

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

Why is social media so anti-fee speech, and have they become total BS?
