Is it better at those types of things than copilot? Or even just conventional boilerplate IDE plugins?

Is it better at those types of things than copilot? Or even just conventional boilerplate IDE plugins?
- Kranar 3y agoIf there is an IDE plugin then I use it first and foremost, but some refactoring can't be done with IDE plugins. Today I had to write some pybind11 bindings, basically export some C++ functionality to Python. The bindings involve templates and enums and I have a very particular way I like the naming convention to be when I export to Python. Since I've done this before so I copied and pasted examples of how I like to export templates to ChatGPT and then asked it to use that same coding style to export some more classes. It managed to do it without fail. This is a kind of grunt work that years ago would have taken me hours and it's demoralizing work. Nowadays when I get stuff like this, it's just such a breeze. As to copilot, I have not used it but I think it's powered by GPT4.
- hackerlight 3y agoWhat tools/plugins do you use for this? Cursor.sh, Codium, CoPilot+VsCode, manually copy/pasting from chat.openai.com?
