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

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

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

Dear atheist, do you realise that there is a God watching over you who will one day judge and condemn you for every wrong thing you have said and done before casting you into the lake of fire?

And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:

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

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

Virtual model of a Venusian pancake dome shows it likely formed due to elastic lithosphere and dense lava - Phys.org

Ah. Claude Claude Claude.

Here’s the proof :

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

Why do liberals think same-sex marriage is alright? The Bible makes it very clear that it's not alright to be gay, why can't liberals understand that?

I don’t think so Claudeboy.

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

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):

What can I do to deal with disrespectful children?

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:

Re——-aaaaalllllly.

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

To the reader/asker:

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