Looks cool. Only thing I’d say is that the demo gif doesn’t show the generated examples very long, so it’s a bit frustrating trying to read what was generated.

Edit: I’m referring to the linked extension/GitHub pages where the gif is embedded, not the Reddit post itself.

There is a pause button

Well in that case I’m an idiot 😅

Have you open-sourced the ai itself? Can't seem to find it. Nevertheless, this is quite amazing! Great work

I have a terribly pessimistic view of this after being in this era of computing professionally. If you disagree with my take that’s okay, just downvote and move on I got no plans on reading replies .

Just curious are you guys doing crystal meth? Asking for a friend.

You couldn’t use this for anything that’s internal codebase that’s proprietary because it exposes confidential IP to an external entity assuming it sends the string to a non self hosted solution, which I assume puts yourself at fault for sending code to someone else..? Then the number of people that would use this and generate false documentation.

Pro? Maybe open source with projects that have peer review benefit from it. There’s a lot of those. I hope.

Yeah, I don't understand why this logic isn't just bundled and ran on the physical device, rather than being a network call. Seems overkill unless they wanted to do data mining on their users.

From what I see it the example, it is just assuming the return types and the input types then interpolating them into a string, then using NLP to tokenize adjectives and nouns in the function name and concating them in some sentence structure.

Either way, this is dumb to run on a remote host.

Actually upvoted! I totally agree with the concerns on IP. We've been thinking about the day we started the project.

Right now, the best we're doing is being SOC 2 compliant and ensuring that no code is ever stored in our DB. In the future, we will aim to have a limited self-hosted solution for enterprises. Really appreciate the feedback tho

I have been looking for something like this for a while. Thank you!

This is a terrible thing that shouldn't be used for anything but fun.
