Suggesting code that doesn't have to work is like 1% of the problem, the other 99% is validating and fixing it. We're nowhere near there yet.

- bhouston 4y agoI wonder how far we are. I do get the code from ChatGPT, I run it, I give feedback to ChatGPT, I then fix the bugs GPT points out. This loop mostly works. Although it often needs external information in order to resolve some of the ambiguities. Also ChatGPT apologizes when it is wrong, although it isn't always able to fix the issue. I feel that some structure around this will cause ChatGPT + Github Copilot to jump up another order of magnitude in productivity/effectiveness. Maybe two orders of magnitude.
