Let the AI Coding Wars Begin!

The big news this week was a call from tech luminaries to pause development and deployment of AI models more advanced than OpenAI’s GTP-4—the stunningly capable language algorithm behind ChatGPT—until risks including job displacement and misinformation can be better understood. It might not look like a regular business deal, but Alphabet’s agreement to supply AI to Replit, a web-based coding tool with over 20 million users, is something of a seismic shift. Replit will use Google’s AI models, along with others, in Ghostwriter, a tool that recommends code and answers code-related questions in a manner similar to ChatGPT. With things moving so quickly, it’s worth considering what the consequences of rapidly incorporating AI into software development might be.
