Next version will be 40% garbage. Then 30%, then 20%... And we got to the point where it has as much garbage as human code.

- mejutoco 4y agoIt might be stick on the last 10% garbage, just like self-driving cars. Clearly it is an important change, but for some fields 90% might not be enough. Personally, I think we will do more and more complicated things instead of just being done with programming.
- tome 4y agoHow do you know that?
- nprateem 4y agoThat's what you might expect, but it requires another breakthrough IMO. From what I understand of LLMs, they can't be incrementally improved to add logical reasoning since they're just guessing the next word. It's impressive and fine in many cases, but there are many where it's not enough.
- HDThoreaun 4y agoThey already have some form of reasoning though. GPT4 can solve novel problems. It's certainly not incredible at it, but the incremental logical reasoning improvements have already begun.
- antibasilisk 4y agoThey do logically reason, that's the whole point.
- nprateem 4y agoThey claim to. But there's no inherent understanding. Otherwise they could do maths and reason correctly about code. It's just probabilities.
- antibasilisk 4y agoBut they do often seem to reason correctly about code.
- Ekaros 4y agoWhat is lower bound of the garbage that we reach let's say in 20 years? Is it sufficiently low that you don't need someone to go over the output carefully? And if it fails that it won't destroy any lives?
