Do you have a good example of how to go about that?
- imiric 4y agoI don't, unfortunately. I haven't had the need to try it yet, but I would experiment with it if I was exploring a new codebase. There are some proprietary services that interface against GPT-3/4[1], though if privacy is a concern, it's getting increasingly easier to self-host LLMs. It seems like every day there's a new open source development that makes these tools more accessible. Just in the last few weeks we've seen llama.cpp, Alpaca, Dalai... New projects are appearing so frequently that it's hard to keep up. Their token size and quality is not yet at the GPT-4 level, so you can't analyze entire codebases yet, but they'd still be useful for smaller chunks of code. And at this pace we can expect great improvements soon. [1]: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35313506 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35313506
