Mine is more of a personal website than a blog - I wrote about bands that I’ve been in over the years and various software projects that I created or was a significant contributor to.

The website uses Notion as a backend. Source code is here: https://github.com/ferrislucas/ferrislucas.net

Thank you

Thank you

I too would be interested in a good forum for like minded folks to share ideas about AI coding!

For those looking for specific examples of useful code being authored by AI, you can check out Promptr:

https://github.com/ferrislucas/promptr

The README links to example PR’s comprised of commits written by GPT4. The prompts used to produce the code are noted in the commit messages.

I wrote a coding assistant that makes it easy to use natural language to create and modify code - no copy pasting necessary:

I love this! Really nicely done!

Promptr is a coding assistant tool that allows you to ask GPT to produce or modify code, and the results will be automatically applied to your file system.

https://github.com/ferrislucas/promptr

From the README: Promptr is a CLI tool that makes it easy to apply GPT's code change recommendations with a single command. With Promptr, you can quickly refactor code, implement classes to pass tests, and experiment with LLMs. No more copying code from the ChatGPT window into your editor.

Shameless plug: I created promptr to help with this.

Edit: this PR has some examples of what’s possible https://github.com/ferrislucas/promptr/pull/38

Thank you! Have fun - please share if you do anything cool!

The tool you linked looks really cool nice job! "What could possibly go wrong?" - I love it!

This isn't a proxy. Say you use ChatGPT to assist you while you write code... there's a lot of copy paste action in that workflow. It gets old.

promptr gets rid of the copy paste. That's a much better developer ergonomic (IMO)

Thanks for dropping this here. promptr could sure use a better UX - something like what you've created. Happy to collaborate if there's any interest. Building great tooling for using LLM's to code is something that's really interesting to me.

I don't think it will forget anything as long as everything fits in the context window, but I could totally be wrong. That's the big problem with the "give it everything" approach: if your codebase doesn't fit then it's game over. I've had success limiting what I give it to the relevant files.

I'd love it if you opened an issue on the github repo. I haven't seen this happen. My guess it that maybe you have an older version of node, but I might be way off. Maybe I should dockerize this, so you wouldn't need node installed to use it.

We're thinking the same thing. You might be interested in the prompt template I used to make GPT respond in json format here: https://github.com/ferrislucas/promptr/blob/main/templates/r...

Having GPT's response in json was useful to be able to easily apply the changes GPT wants to the filesystem. GPT4 is significantly more consistent with only responding with json.

Gish looks cool!

Thanks, chatblade looks cool I'll check it out! I've found GPT to be a phenomenal tool for solving problems with code.

promptr doesn't support stdin in this way, but this is a great reason to make it do so.

Great ideas thank you!

You can use this on any code (or text files) that you want. I've used this for rails, and it's great. I think you'd run into issues with more niche languages where the model hasn't had much exposure.

Thanks for saying this. I feel the same way. There's something magic about telling the robot to "make the tests pass" and watching the implementation magically appear. It does surprisingly well sometimes. I think if I put some work into the prompts then things could perform better and more consistently.

The files you pass to promptr are indeed sent to OpenAI. There’s no man in the middle. Privacy is important, and I’m glad you care.

The relevant code is here https://github.com/ferrislucas/promptr/blob/3ae09d1cffbb6b93...

And here: https://github.com/ferrislucas/promptr/blob/3ae09d1cffbb6b93...

Yes, I totally agree. I just wanted to get it out there. Probably a little early, but oh well.
