I absolutely agree, but I find the situation incredibly funny. There are three characters here: me, the LLM, and the compiler. Two of them are robots, but they refuse to talk to each other - it's up to me to tell the LLM the bad news from the compiler.

that's a frontend issue though. If you use the python interpreter in ChatGPT, you can tell it to run the code until it works, at which point it'll do a couple of iterations before giving you code.

How many people are putting service credentials into a ChatGPT Python interpreter to see if their generated code "works"?

One of our very large customers was hit with ransomware recently. So…best practice is don’t do things like that.

You can just use your own.... There is still the risk GPT-4 gives you ~ "delete all the things" and you blindly run it on your infra, but.. it's better than what. you describe.

This sounds like the worst game of telephone

dont you already cut and paste your error message to google like everyone else?

I decided to cut out the middleman:

This is really nice. Thumb up

Thank you!

Hm, that’s true. I guess someone could have hooked up pattern matching and google search results and iterated that directly into some IDE.

It will come.

In fact, GPT is really good at correcting its code given the compiler output. We just need to automate that.

I think that this is not done yet because LLMs costs are O(n+1) so you really don’t want it to be stuck in some loop.

What does O(n+1) mean?

O of infinity
