Yeah, and this is pretty useful for small bits of code, but what I want is a way to ask questions about large projects. It would be nice to ask something like "which classes are responsible for doing X", or "describe on a high level how Y works in this code". But I'm not sure if that is actually possible with the current technology.

It’s possible to do this either by fine-tuning an existing model or using an existing chat model prompts enriched by a vector search for relevant code. See my comment elsewhere.
