In shameless attempt to raise awareness about my open source gpt-4 coding tool "aider" [1], I replicated the author's US Census data analysis example from the command line. This doesn't require the beta ChatGPT plugins, just a gpt-4 api key.
You can see in the chat transcript [2] that I had GPT-4 tell me how to download census data, suggest some hypotheses to test, test one, summarize the results and plot a graph. As we went along, I had it write the code for all that as a python script in my local git repo.

- Tostino 3y agoGetting an API key has been just a waiting game here... Not been approved through work or personally yet after almost 3 months. I already have plugin access though, it's...alright. The web browsing leaves a ton to be desired.
- anotherpaulg 3y agoYa, I'm not sure why I got lucky to receive one. For coding tasks, gpt-4 really is significantly better than 3.5. I've been building tools for coding with GPT for a few months now, and they got way more effective and reliable with gpt-4.
- TheHumanist 3y agoThe thing I've used browsing for the most is linking to lengthy markdown files for large initial prompts with heavy detail. It works alright. Not perfect but decent.
