These days, artificial intelligence is already starting to enter different aspects of our lives in both big and small ways. We use AI-powered chatbots to book appointments and get customer service, we have AI-based voice assistants to perform tasks or answer questions, and some of us even have AI-based personal assistants to help with our workflows.
In the near future, AI will become even more involved in our lives and work. One way this will happen is through the use of AI-powered coding platforms that can help us write code faster and with fewer errors.
One such platform is OpenAI Codex, which is an AI system that can generate code on its own. The system is designed to do the job of a software developer, and it is claimed that it can do so better than any human.
The system works by first taking a set of instructions and then translating them into a set of code. The system is then able to understand the code and improve upon it. The aim is for the system to eventually be able to generate code that is error-free and efficient.
Critics have raised concerns about the potential for the system to be used for malicious purposes. However, the developers of the system say that it will only be used for good and that it will not be used to create weapons or anything else that could be used to harm people.
OpenAI Codex or similar platforms such as Amazon CodeWhisperer will only be used to help developers write better code faster and to help automate the software development process. Developers can use Codex as more of a virtual assistant than thinking of it as a coder itself.
While it remains to be seen how successful these AI-powered coding platforms will be, it is clear that they have the potential to change the way we write code and the way we develop software.
If you have ever learnt Chess by planning with an AI powered computer as teacher, OpenAI Codex may be able to do the same with learning to code for you. It can be your Co-pilot, with the ability to help you code better, faster and with fewer errors.
We are excited to see what Codex or similar tools can do to change the way we write code!
