Reply to comment by huitu34 in [P] I made a command-line tool that explains your errors using ChatGPT (link in comments) by jsonathan

There is GitHub CoPilot available as a VS Code extension, it uses OpenAI’s Codex model, I assume ChatGPT is accessing Codex under the hood when it receives a programming related inquiry, but I could totally be wrong.

As a side note, Copilot seems like a bit of a privacy concern so I would personally be wary of using it with any private or commercial projects.

No. The whole chatgpt/gpt-3.5 model builds on code-davinci-002 (which is maybe the one tuned for copilot, but I don't think this has been said publicly).

So amy prompt to chatgpt is a prompt to a differently fine-tuned version of copilot (or copilot-like).

Copilot is a 12B model (for inference speed), chatGPT is the 175B one, not specifically trained on code I'm pretty sure. So chatGPT should give better results on average because of the better model.

I also found it impressive that it explains in plain language what insights it gets from the code. That's a very big improvement over openpilot.
