GPT-4 32k can fit a few thousand lines of code into a single prompt and output diff's, patches, and/or the fully modified code. For best results, pasting any relevant documentation into the prompt can help.

Is there word of ane outside big co's getting access to 32k ? I got 8k access pretty quickly but no word whatsoever about 32k (and my current prompts + context already reach 8-9k tokens)

I'm paying for chatgpt. How can I tell what input token size I get?

It's 4k, both for GPT4 and for GPT 3.5.

Are you paying for API access or for ChatGPT plus?

This is not really the same, but may be interesting to some: I subscribe to ChatGPT plus for a month to check out GPT-4. The rate limits were cumbersome though and it can be easy to waste a prompt, so I started to bootstrap:

I would explain my problem to 3.5 and ask it to suggest comprehensive prompts to use with 4 to maximize my limited quota. It worked very well.

In the long years to come the most advance AIs may become so far removed from us that the best intermediaries will be their less advanced brethren.

The technological singularity is approaching fast.

It's pretty clear that, given terminal access and an appropriate outer loop, GPT models can iteratively create new GPT models (either by writing and executing Pyhton code, or later versions trained on LLM weights may even be able to output new weights directly). If the inner workings of the loop are sufficiently obfuscated (in the code-based version), it wouldn't necessarily be clear to us what had changed, and the model weights/architecture on their own are not interpretable. That's very close to a singularity definition (machines that self-improve faster than what our understanding can keep up with), the only open question is whether the new versions would actually be improvements. But that sounds solvable too (except that it wouldn't be easy for us to tell for sure).

Copilot without -x does this relatively well. But it's a hands-on process. I can't just give it some source files and say "go". But it can easily make you 10x. I often spend more time tab-completing than writing.

I'm still trying to figure out how to do this. Copilot is extremely helpful. But more often than not, it suggests completions which would steer the project in another direction. It is extremely good once the code has been organised and an overall structure exists. But until then it can be a distraction.

How are you guys enjoying copilot? For me, it wastes time so often. It blocked my editor auto importing functionality and times where I really have some easy suggestion that I need, maybe 50% of the time it doesn’t suggest the right thing.

I’m hopeful for -x version though.

What value does driver deliver if entire process is done by a car?

Not much, hence I dont need a dedicated driver to drive my car.

Until bird shits on the camera, your kid vomits in the car, tire is punctured, somebody breaks window, police hails to stop, you're choking with peanut, there is a crash nearby or crash with your car and all other kind of edge cases.

What value does a developer deliver when their entire process is done by an LLM? Is there no desire for a creative process?

My manager is pretty confused about what ChatGPT is, just in the same way the same way they’re confused about Python. So not too worried yet.

They’re not going to be coding tomorrow.
