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

To the reader/asker:

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

Here’s the proof :

How do you say "I don't speak Italian yet, but I hope to speak it well one day. It would be a pleasure to learn Italian with you. Would you like to teach me Italian?" in Italian?

When are the gas prices supposed to go up? Just asking because I was told by "educated" liberals that they were going to go throught the roof, but all I see are prices going down, especially in my home state of Ohio!!!

I don’t think so Claudeboy.

And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:
