Thanks for the feedback, could you please post the cached Phind link so we can take a look? It might also be helpful to try Phind Chat mode in cases like this.

Thanks for the feedback, could you please post the cached Phind link so we can take a look? It might also be helpful to try Phind Chat mode in cases like this. EDIT: It seems like Phind-70B is capable of getting the right regex nearly every time when Chat mode is used or search results are disabled. It seems that the search results are polluting the answer for this example, we'll look into how to fix it.

  Phind-70B worked well for me just now: https://www.phind.com/agent?cache=clsxokt2u0002ig09n1e11bj9 https://www.phind.com/agent?cache=clsxokt2u0002ig09n1e11bj9. For writing/manipulating code, Chat mode might work better than Search.

    You're right! It solved it. I didn't know about the Code/Search distinction. I still struggled for it to write me the unit tests. It does write them, they just don't pass. But this is definitely much closer to GPT4 than I originally thought.

    woah I've been using phind for at least a few months and can't believe I never noticed the "Chat" button

    Now if we could get an AI that would switch code/search mode on its own

    You may want to improve the ui/ux for getting to your chat. It’s very hard to find on your homepage even when looking for it.

I've tried it with a question which requires deeper expertise – "What is a good technique for device authentication in the context of IoT?" – and the Search mode is also worse than the Chat mode: - Search: https://www.phind.com/search?cache=s4e576jlnp1mpw73n9iy4sqc https://www.phind.com/search?cache=s4e576jlnp1mpw73n9iy4sqc - Chat: https://www.phind.com/agent?cache=clsyev95o0006le08b5pjrs14 https://www.phind.com/agent?cache=clsyev95o0006le08b5pjrs14 The search was heavily diluted by authentication methods that don't make any sense for machine-to-machine authentication, like multi-factor or biometric authentication, as well as the advice to combine several methods. It also falls into the, admittedly common, trap of assuming that certificate based authentication is more difficult to implement than symmetric key (i.e. pre-shared key) authentication. The chat answer is not perfect, but the signal-to-noise ratio is much better. The multi-factor authentication advice is again present, but it's the only major error, and it also adds relevant side-topics that point in the right direction (secure credential storage, secure boot, logging of auth attempts). The Python example is cute, but completely useless, though (Python for embedded devices is rare and in any case you wouldn't want a raw TLS socket, but use it in a MQTTS / HTTPS / CoAP+DTLS stack, and last but not least, it provides a server instead of client, even though IoT devices mostly communicate outbound).
