*Open-Source Code Generator Is Very Good at Writing in C*
*ZDNetLiam TungMarch 7, 2022* Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) researchers have launched an automated code generator model trained on multiple programming languages, which they said they found was very good at writing code in C. The researchers hope the open-source PolyCoder can democratize research into artificial intelligence (AI) code generation, which companies like Alphabet subsidiary DeepMind and Open AI now dominate. Underlying auto code generation is the premise that the process can save developers time, assuming the output is accurate and lacks security flaws. The CMU researchers said PolyCoder has "2.7 [billion] parameters based on the GPT-2 architecture, that was trained on 249 [gigabytes] of code across 12 programming languages on a single machine." *Full Article <https://orange.hosting.lsoft.com/trk/click?ref=znwrbbrs9_6-2e35bx33221cx095084&>* Skip Cave Cave Consulting LLC ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
