Artificial intelligence speeds up the work of programmers with Codex |
OpenAI is one of the leading companies in the field of artificial intelligence. The company announced the launch of a new tool that can be used to translate English words into code. The name of the tool is Codex.
The beta version of the tool has proven its ability to create and design simple websites and games entirely in natural language. However, the same method is used to convert the program from one programming language to another.
The operation is carried out by passing English language commands to the tool, for example: "Create a page from the website with a sidebar on the left, use red." The tool that already created the page.
Programming with AI and Codex
The diet is far from perfect. Due to the relatively long processing time. But on the other hand, it represents a shift in the field of programming and further proof of the capabilities of artificial intelligence.
Greg Brockman, co-founder of OpenAI, said Codex can be viewed as a utility and should not be relied upon entirely. Here he describes programming as having two parts. The first part is to think about problems and try to find solutions. This is the man's role.
The second part is to implement the solution by writing the appropriate code. In this case Codex is useful because it takes care of the "boring" part of the process as described by Brockmann.
OpenAI uses an earlier version of Codex in performance programming called Co-pilot or "co-pilot" in Arabic because it is also a utility.
This tool has the ability to complete lines as you type, just like the advice from Gmail and others on email composing, but this tool is better developed with an earlier version of Codex. This is good.
Project Copilot is published on GitHub and its code is owned by Microsoft. Because there is a strong relationship between OpenAI and Microsoft.
Codex and other OpenAI projects are being developed based on their GPT-3 model. It is an artificial intelligence model that can create readable content. Codex learns coding by providing millions of lines of code.
So programmers began to fight against it. Since OpenAI uses open source code to teach its software and then take advantage of it, developers get nothing. It is reported that OpenAI has been a non-profit since 2015, and did not become a for-profit company until 2019. Now hundreds of people have invested.
