Comment on Ask HN: Those with success using GPT-4 for programming – what are you doing?

Comments

I’m using it to do the mundane tasks of unit testing and (some) documentation. I find that the code it spits out isn’t perfect but getting some boiler plate and fixing it up is pretty fast compared to writing from scratch.

I’ve used this enough that I wrapped some cli glue around it and wrote https://github.com/radoshi/llm-code

I’ve used this mostly to write Python and bash, with some Makefiles and Dockerfiles thrown in.

GPT-4 is better, albeit slower, than 3.5-turbo. HTH!
