AI writing code?!

Had to share this here...

AI Machine Learning With Chat Interface - Revolutionizing Programming & Learning to Code?!

This is like right out of Star Trek. It's a machine learning API with a chat interface. You can ask it things in natural language like, "write me code in perl that merges two excel spreadsheets." It'll then spit out code to do that. Then you can do things like, "comment all the code," and...

This is insane! I've known about openAI's chat for a while now, but had no idea it was getting this darn good!

I played with it, and it looks good but I've yet to test the code it spits out. From a cursory glance, it looks like it should be right, but would need more testing.

And how far can it go? Does it have limits? Of course, it has limits, yet I wonder if there are appropriate limits.

Github co-poilot will do that right in your IDE, you can do something like write a comment or an method signature and it will write the implementation. It is quite interesting to play with.
