Hooray for... \ Zuckerberg? I've lost track of the plot at some point.
Meta is huge. It can't all be bad, even if some parts of the company are objectively terrible.
I wonder what's the endgame for Zuch here? I doubt he's doing these out of philanthropy.
Google and Microsoft (through their investment in open AI) are spending billions on LLMs. Zuck just wants to make sure they don't get an advantage out of spending all this money.
If you
a) can get feedback about how good the code entered was, and can use the users code in followup generation.
b) have deep enough pockets to sustain giving this for 'free' to plenty of people for a while.
c) are willing to be focused enough to make sure this LLM only touches code.
Once your product is good enough and enough people rely on it for productivity you can basically name your price to any business. The key is how deep their pockets are and how big a risk they want to make.
That makes quite a lot of sense.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is intelligence demonstrated by machines, unlike the natural intelligence displayed by humans and animals, which involves consciousness and emotionality. The distinction between the former and the latter categories is often revealed by the acronym chosen.
