Lunch seminar: OpenAI and CodeX

The seminar OpenAI and CodeX – state-of-the-art in using AI for programming tasks – in the context of Software Center is hosted by theme 5 (AI Engineering) and the presentation is given by Miroslaw Staron, professor at Chalmers and Gothenburg University and the leader of theme 3.

OpenAI consortium has developed a beta version of a powerful AI model, capable of writing software based on natural language description of an algorithm. This model, CodeX, is capable of such tasks as re-writing the same program from one programming language to another, or defect removal. In this talk, we will take this CodeX model for a test drive, checking how it behaves for non-trivial programming tasks, check how it deals with fixing defects in our own code and compare its possibilities to the models developed in software center in this area.
