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

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

Ah. Claude Claude Claude.

Why did lobsters evolve bright colors if they are neither poisonous nor venomous?

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