I posted this earlier, but I wanted a java port of sed for ... Reasons, and despite the existence of man pages and source code it couldn't do anything but the most basic flags.
Imo this should be low hanging fruit. Porting non-trivial but yet 3-4 core code files that are already debugged and interface specified should be what an LLM excels at.
- Kye 2y agoI tried this with Microsoft's Copilot + the Think Deeper button. That allegedly uses the new o1 model. It goes into a lot of fancy talk about...pretty much what you said older models did. Then it said "here's some other stuff you could extend this with!" and a list of all the important sed functionality. It's possible it could do it if prompted to finish the code with those things, but I don't know the secret number of fancy o1 uses I get and I don't want to burn them on something that's not for me. You should be able to access it here if you have a Microsoft account and want to try the button: https://copilot.microsoft.com/ https://copilot.microsoft.com/
