A list of AI coding tools

oulipo 3y ago
Are there people working on an open-source alternative to Aqua Voice (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39828686 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39828686) Seems it should be easy enough to have a basic model doing the same, by using Whisper and any sensible LLM Talk -> streaming STT/Whisper -> some basic processing to put the text in a "markdown-like" format which allows to do structural edits (eg "change the order of the bullet points") -> send to a LLM which process the transcript and apply changes (add text, modify structure, etc)

  What valuable differences would an open source version have over aquavoice? Why do you need an open source version?
- FezzikTheGiant 3y ago
  I'm thinking of building something like this over the summer, an open-source alternative that is integrated into desktop with a community effort on building a training data source. However the biggest concern is that it would cost a lot of money to build this. If you have any thoughts/advice I'd be happy to chat.

would love to see comparison of AI code completion tools

I wish the list included some generic labels, e.g. showing whether a tool is paid/freemium, open/proprietary, local/cloud. Unless that's what they mean by dividing the list into "code completion tools" and "code completion LLMs"? In this case I'd adjust the naming to be more clear (I'm sure many of the tools in the first category are LLM based too)

  Yes, this list doesn't provide more than a quick google search. It's easy to find a million competing products. Getting an unbiased comparison with a table of points is a more useful resource that takes more effort to make and keep updated.

Has anyone made a self modifying eMacs yet?

It is not even remotely up to date. > Cursor (editor, not yet released) Well, it is up and running, https://cursor.sh/ https://cursor.sh/. I recommend it a lot - finally, not just a chat, but a tool in which a considerable fraction of programming happens in English. Two weeks ago, I converted my blog from Gridsome to Nuxt 3 - the latter is a framework I haven't used yet. It was able to generate whole files and debug them line by line. Or write scripts that change folder structure - well-written, well-explained, and just working. Still, I needed some knowledge of TypeScript and Vue, but it saved tons of my time - for writing, googling, and debugging. It felt more like working with a diligent, smart, and fast junior.

Hey, call to action here: we need a standard way to let all these AI coding tools know which files shouldn't be touched by them. Call it .copilotignore (or .aitoolignore to be more vendor-agnostic), but we need this standard to be enforced. This also benefits these tool developers: What responsibility do you have when receiving sensitive information from .env or other secret files? What if a secret escapes because you've trained an AI model on sensitive data and someone found a consistent way to access it?

Many missing tools, but I think this is an open Pandora's Box that devs will be afraid to touch.
