Despite being only 1.1B params, SantaCoder outperforms Facebook's InCoder (6.7B params) and Salesforce's CodeGen-Multi-2.7B. Paper: https://hf.co/datasets/bigcode/admin/resolve/main/BigCode_Sa... Dataset search: https://huggingface.co/spaces/bigcode/santacoder-search Model weights: https://huggingface.co/bigcode/santacoder

Any idea how this, and those other two models, would compare to GitHub Copilot?

Not even close

I found this really interesting:

> e investigate the impact of 4 preprocessing methods on the training data: filtering files from repositories with 5+ GitHub stars, filtering files with a high comments-to- code ratio, more aggressive filtering of near-duplicates, and filtering files with a low character-to-token ratio. We observe modest impact of the new filters except for the stars filter, which deteriorates performance on text2code benchmarks significantly. This is an interesting result given that previous work has explicitly filtered for GitHub Stars as a proxy for data quality

Is anyone else here building AI programming services based on models like this? I see a lot of comments saying the models can't do much programming. But I just suspect there must be a silent contingent that is also working on services like that. And maybe less likely to promote the abilities of these models because it encourages competition.

Yes we are incorporating into Graphistry as part of how we help sec/fraud/misinfo/crime/etc analyst teams investigate their data. Our platform does all sorts of GPU visual graph analytics & graph AI once data gets loaded in, and as part of our visual playbooks automation layer, this helps users make automations and fancier queries. Think Splunk, Spark, Neo4j, ... .

IMO tough question of who can do codegen as a scalable standalone startup, but that's ok. Pretty darn easy & useful for many productivity platforms like ours where it's just a super nice feature as part of delivering a broader magical experience.

Related: we are hiring a k8s/pydata person, ideally who has need a user & builder of investigation platforms, as we are working w co's like Nvidia to bring this kind of thing to some pretty major enterprise & gov teams. See gdoc linked on our careers page.

Yup, as part of another thing. ML assisted everything is here to stay.

I think my job is safe. def all_odd_prime_elements(sequence): """Returns every odd prime element of the sequence.""" return [x for x in sequence if x % 2 == 1] def all_even_prime_elements(sequence): """Returns every even prime element of the sequence.""" return [x for x in

You can increase the number of tokens to be generated in "Advanced Settings"

That's not the issue here, it's just saying any odd number is prime, which is false

Earlier quoted context omitted.

We use a few depending on the task (Codex, fine-tuned T5, Bert models, etc.). Constantly experimenting with different variations. Since we focus on solving narrower problems in more depth, it leaves more room for optimizing accuracy.

Have you been able to get your rate limit increased for code-davinci-002? It defaults to a very small amount.

I recommend trying davinci-003 as well.
