From TFA: “OpenAI estimates that OpenAI Codex (what powers Github’s Copilot) can already complete 37% of coding tasks.”
- p1esk 4y agoAre you intentionally trying to hide that “coding tasks” in the blog article is a link to the paper, clearly explaining what these coding task are? And you, for some reason, decided to add “all” before “coding tasks”. What are you trying to pull?
- benreesman 4y agoI’m not trying to “pull” anything. I find the notion that Codex/Copilot is within 2-3 orders of magnitude from writing code I’d trust without a careful audit that does anything more than some CRUD thing in JS framework du jour to be Kurzweil-whacko singularity shit, and that the only people trying to “pull” anything here are the people training GPT-3 on everyone’s GutHub repository without permission or attribution and exploit non-expert opinion to generate yet another round of hype, hysteria, and mysticism about that magical pair of two undefinable words: “artificial” and “intelligence”. I regret mis-quoting TFA by an article, because if I cited it correctly I’d really lay the fucking smack down here. Have I adequately answered your condescending question?
