Programmers are no longer needed?

Over the past year, technologies based on artificial intelligence have been developing in giant steps. One of these technologies is the GPT-2 neural network from Openair, co-founded by Elon Musk. The fact is that recently this neuron was taught to program.

Initially, this artificial intelligence could add text based on a passage written by a person. And last week, instead of the usual text, 2 million files were uploaded to the system from the GitHub service , an online repository of files with program code. And now, anyone who wants to can try the functionality of the system in adding code in beta testing mode on the site https://tabnine.com/blog/deep And thus, helping the system to develop further.

So far, the system can only add code and not always correctly. But even this is already impressive! And it is worth understanding that this is only the beginning, and it is quite possible that programmers will be replaced by intelligent systems. Very possible.
