I use GTP-3 codex daily when working. It saves me time, helps me explore unfamiliar languages and APIs and generates approaches to solve problems. It can be shockingly good at coding in narrow contexts. It would be a mistake to miss the developments happening in this area

I think people are misunderstanding my comment here.

I said “GPT-3 is not exactly a good tool for programming”, but that actually meant “GPT-3 is not exactly a good tool to program in”. OP implemented a string-reversing algorithm in GPT-3, and my comment was made in the exact same context. In other words, I was treating GPT-3 as a kind of programming language.
