The algorithm doesn't have any "general framework skills" though because it's an algorithm, not a person.
It can generate something that looks like what a person would have wrote based on its compressed probabilities, but that's very different from being an "an artofficial intelligence". At best it's a Chinese Room.
And proper APIs and Frameworks are very well documented inputs and outputs, whats your point?
Im pretty sure we could train an AI to suggest the correct API for the intended purposes. Given the fact that we have support of datatypes and documentation what is left to do is to map what you have to what you want.
Also we can reasonably generate classes and controllers already through cli, so why not combine all the nice things we have to something usefull.
With types and comments as a prompt in Go, GPT already produces fairly viable API endpoints for basic CRUD operations.
With some framework to compose various prompted endpoints using the same types and conventions, a junior engineer would be totally unnecessary. They couldn’t code as well, and they couldn’t architect as well as a more experienced engineer doing the prompting.
You could even prompt from a spec and begin iterating upon the outputs, revising each manually or with GPT’s suggestions. Say “take this endpoint and refactor it based on the conventions of this endpoint, and make sure (some logic) accounts for (some potential problem)” and boom, it will probably work okay.
But aren't the devs of the future on GPT right now, half-assing learning to code while getting a fast track education in correcting bugs and architecting?
If this technology evolves to be able to reliably generate working code to a prompt, the entire field of software dev will shift dramatically. Some junior and some senior devs would prove better at meeting deadlines by AI whispering, and others would have to find new career paths.
