An anonymous reader quotes a report from Ars Technica: Debugging a faulty program can be frustrating, so why not let AI do it for you? That’s what a developer that goes by “BioBootloader” did by creating Wolverine, a program that can give Python programs “regenerative healing abilities,” reports Hackaday. (Yep, just like the Marvel superhero.) “Run your scripts with it and when they crash, GPT-4 edits them and explains what went wrong,” wrote BioBootloader in a tweet that accompanied a demonstration video. “Even if you have many bugs it’ll repeatedly rerun until everything is fixed.”<\/p>\n
In the demo video for Wolverine, BioBootloader shows a side-by-side window display, with Python code on the left and Wolverine results on the right in a terminal. He loads a custom calculator script in which he adds a few bugs on purpose, then executes it. “It runs it, it sees the crash, but then it goes and talks to GPT-4 to try to figure out how to fix it,” he says. GPT-4 returns an explanation for the program’s errors, shows the changes that it tries to make, then re-runs the program. Upon seeing new errors, GPT-4 fixes the code again, and then it runs correctly. In the end, the original Python file contains the changes added by GPT-4.<\/p>\n
