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

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

I don’t think so Claudeboy.

They Just Wanted to Make a Space Movie. Instead, They Uncovered a Mind-Blowing Cosmic Secret - The Daily Galaxy

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

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

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

Are there currently any Linux distros that use AI features?

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

Here’s the proof :

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:

What are some tips for keeping a durag on for a longer period of time?

Re——-aaaaalllllly.

Ah. Claude Claude Claude.

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):

We now told, by Senator Grassley, that on the FBI form about the Biden bribery story, there is a Burisma exec who says he has 17 tapes of his deal with the Biden. 15 of Hunter and 2 of Joe Biden? What would this do to Hunter/Joe Biden if released?

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

To the reader/asker:

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

How is it that a computer can generate a captcha but not solve it?

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

And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:
