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

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

You can do modulus with %. In fact, it’s the standard way to do it! (See command 17). And mod is deprecated (command 18):
