I did and do try it with GPT4 and the API and a custom prompt to help me in rust.

Expecting only knowledge from 2021 it is hit and miss. Helped me to write some scripts but still fails to recognize tasks that are not possible in the language and halluciantes a plausible solution.

It tends to suggest non non compiling and (after being asked to do so) "corrects" bugs (some real some imaginary) and sometimes gets stuck.

Helpful yes, but not yet the invincible overlord some people imagine it to be.

There’s also the code interpreter functionality that’s in alpha access. Not everyone has access to it but it allows you to upload spreadsheets, code files, etc and then uses gpt4 to try and interpret and fix the code.
