Your software developer job is safe for at least the next 100 years.
And let’s use the latest, extra-capable model 4.1 from OpenAPI. The result:

Here’s the proof :
Totam aut neque cum voluptas velit eum tempore.
Let’s use the agent to see if it can search at least, when it doesn’t know?

How can I promote my Amazon products to get more sales?
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:
