code + +3 +00:00:06,279 --> 00:00:11,719 +generation and uh so this is a a + +4 +00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:13,599 +research topic that I've uh worked on + +5 +00:00:11,719 --> 00:00:15,280 +for a long time now I I like a lot it's + +6 +00:00:13,599 --> 00:00:17,520 +become very useful nowadays which is + +7 +00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:20,960 +very exciting um so I'd like to talk + +8 +00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:23,119 +about kind of some of the basics and + +9 +00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:28,000 +Frontiers uh that we're working on right + +10 +00:00:23,119 --> 00:00:28,000 +now in this General uh area + +11 +00:00:31,719 --> 00:00:36,760 +um + +12 +00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:38,160 +so before I get into code generation + +13 +00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:40,719 +specifically one thing I'd like to point + +14 +00:00:38,160 --> 00:00:43,399 +out is for the next four or so classes + +15 +00:00:40,719 --> 00:00:45,680 +I'm going to be talking about tasks and + +16 +00:00:43,399 --> 00:00:48,680 +up until now I've been focusing on a lot + +17 +00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:52,840 +of like General things that weren't as + +18 +00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:55,199 +much about any specific tasks um + +19 +00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:57,000 +and I know that not everybody's going to + +20 +00:00:55,199 --> 00:00:59,399 +be interested in the four tasks that I'm + +21 +00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:00,960 +talking about in the next you know four + +22 +00:00:59,399 --> 00:01:02,480 +lectures + +23 +00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,920 +um + +24 +00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:06,640 +but I'm going to be covering various + +25 +00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,680 +things about different tasks and + +26 +00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:10,640 +hopefully you can map the same questions + +27 +00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:12,040 +onto whatever task you are interested in + +28 +00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:14,360 +if you're not interested in any of the + +29 +00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:15,880 +ones I talk about here so basically what + +30 +00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:18,119 +I want to talk about is the task + +31 +00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:21,040 +objective like why do we do that task + +32 +00:01:18,119 --> 00:01:23,479 +why is it important um what data sets + +33 +00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:26,560 +can we use to train or test our models + +34 +00:01:23,479 --> 00:01:28,799 +on these tasks evaluation metrics and + +35 +00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:31,200 +how do we evaluate uh both manually and + +36 +00:01:28,799 --> 00:01:32,079 +automatically with respect to how good + +37 +00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:34,960 +we're + +38 +00:01:32,079 --> 00:01:37,880 +doing and finally models and methods so + +39 +00:01:34,960 --> 00:01:40,720 +you know how do we solve the + +40 +00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:42,479 +problem and so for code generation first + +41 +00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:44,439 +I'd like to talk about the overview and + +42 +00:01:42,479 --> 00:01:47,040 +objectives of code generation so + +43 +00:01:44,439 --> 00:01:48,840 +basically code generation is the task of + +44 +00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:52,439 +generating executable code is an + +45 +00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:54,479 +interface to uh a program or to + +46 +00:01:52,439 --> 00:01:58,320 +computers and there's a lot of different + +47 +00:01:54,479 --> 00:02:01,000 +ways we can do this um why do we want to + +48 +00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:03,159 +do this so + +49 +00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:05,000 +the first thing is that software + +50 +00:02:03,159 --> 00:02:06,759 +engineering is really important and + +51 +00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:09,640 +being able to generate code accelerate + +52 +00:02:06,759 --> 00:02:11,560 +software engineering uh now code + +53 +00:02:09,640 --> 00:02:13,640 +generation is practical and I hope that + +54 +00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:15,599 +everybody in the class is using some + +55 +00:02:13,640 --> 00:02:17,840 +sort of you know code generation to + +56 +00:02:15,599 --> 00:02:20,200 +accelerate your own workflow if you're + +57 +00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:22,599 +not I highly encourage you to to try it + +58 +00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:26,200 +because it's very + +59 +00:02:22,599 --> 00:02:31,040 +useful second it also does things like + +60 +00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:34,239 +enabling models to access tools um + +61 +00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:37,440 +and even if you're not specifically + +62 +00:02:34,239 --> 00:02:39,440 +working on a software related task this + +63 +00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:41,000 +can be helpful but I want to talk about + +64 +00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,480 +this in a later class when we talk about + +65 +00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:46,640 +llm agents so I'm not going to be + +66 +00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:48,319 +talking about um that as much this time + +67 +00:02:46,640 --> 00:02:50,159 +uh one other thing that I I forgot to + +68 +00:02:48,319 --> 00:02:52,920 +mention here which I'm also going to + +69 +00:02:50,159 --> 00:02:55,000 +talk about in the later class is even if + +70 +00:02:52,920 --> 00:02:58,120 +you're not using code at all training on + +71 +00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:00,319 +code has been shown to cause some + +72 +00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:01,920 +benefits to learning models uh + +73 +00:03:00,319 --> 00:03:03,799 +specifically with respect to learning + +74 +00:03:01,920 --> 00:03:06,480 +like difficult multitask reasoning uh + +75 +00:03:03,799 --> 00:03:07,599 +sorry multi-step reasoning tasks and so + +76 +00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,480 +that's another reason why you might want + +77 +00:03:07,599 --> 00:03:10,840 +to worry about codes so I'm going to + +78 +00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,840 +mainly talk about the first one this + +79 +00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,560 +time and leave the other two uh for + +80 +00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:17,720 +future + +81 +00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:21,760 +lectures so specifically for this task + +82 +00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:25,200 +our input um is some sort of + +83 +00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:27,360 +specification of what we want to do um + +84 +00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:30,319 +and our output is going to be + +85 +00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:33,000 +code so + +86 +00:03:30,319 --> 00:03:35,920 +when you write a + +87 +00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,239 +program how do you describe the thing + +88 +00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:40,239 +that you want to implement in the + +89 +00:03:37,239 --> 00:03:42,000 +program before you implement it like uh + +90 +00:03:40,239 --> 00:03:44,720 +yeah what are some of the specifications + +91 +00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,720 +that people can give + +92 +00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:50,720 +you what the input and output of the + +93 +00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:52,360 +functions are uh yes uh sorry what what + +94 +00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:54,400 +types the inputs and outputs of the + +95 +00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:56,239 +function are so those would be like type + +96 +00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:57,760 +in in Python for example yeah that + +97 +00:03:56,239 --> 00:03:59,439 +that's a good one it's actually not on + +98 +00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:02,079 +my list of things here but it's it's a + +99 +00:03:59,439 --> 00:04:06,040 +good Point yeah any any other things + +100 +00:04:02,079 --> 00:04:08,680 +yeah complexity requirements complexity + +101 +00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:11,040 +requirements constraints that is also + +102 +00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:14,840 +not on my list of things here uh that's + +103 +00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:17,040 +uh that's a good one too um and any uh + +104 +00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:20,280 +slightly more straight forward + +105 +00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:24,040 +things pseudo code yeah um in pseudo + +106 +00:04:20,280 --> 00:04:26,720 +code uh what what is pseudo code written + +107 +00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:28,440 +in natural natural language yeah so + +108 +00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:31,199 +natural language inputs are are one + +109 +00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:34,520 +thing so I will tell you I want I want a + +110 +00:04:31,199 --> 00:04:39,160 +program that uh I want you to write a + +111 +00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:41,479 +web interface that allows me to um order + +112 +00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:43,560 +pizza or something like that that that + +113 +00:04:41,479 --> 00:04:46,560 +would be one way to do it any other + +114 +00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,560 +ideas + +115 +00:04:51,199 --> 00:04:55,840 +yeah this is what I have and this is + +116 +00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:57,240 +what I want yeah so um that's especially + +117 +00:04:55,840 --> 00:04:59,880 +the case if you're like modifying a + +118 +00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:01,400 +program um or something like that so + +119 +00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:06,280 +actually the next one on my list there + +120 +00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:06,280 +so good good point um any other + +121 +00:05:09,759 --> 00:05:15,720 +ideas yeah or or a multimodal person you + +122 +00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:20,120 +know I might say I want a pizza ordering + +123 +00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:22,039 +I want a pizza ordering app and up here + +124 +00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:24,000 +it should have your like username so you + +125 +00:05:22,039 --> 00:05:25,840 +can click through the settings and like + +126 +00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,080 +over here you should have the menu and + +127 +00:05:25,840 --> 00:05:28,680 +over here you should have your check out + +128 +00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,400 +card or something like that you know + +129 +00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:32,440 +it's something you do for a programmer + +130 +00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:34,680 +as well until recently we couldn't + +131 +00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:37,680 +really use that with like actual models + +132 +00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:40,560 +but um yeah yeah well that was my fourth + +133 +00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:42,639 +one but um and then the other one uh + +134 +00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,960 +inputs and outputs this could come in + +135 +00:05:42,639 --> 00:05:46,560 +the form of like unit tests or something + +136 +00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:49,199 +like that where it's like yeah this is + +137 +00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:51,160 +the input this is the expected output so + +138 +00:05:49,199 --> 00:05:53,240 +these are all things we use both as + +139 +00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:55,639 +human programmers and in code generation + +140 +00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:58,120 +models I really like the two other + +141 +00:05:55,639 --> 00:06:00,440 +points though um + +142 +00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:03,759 +because typin + +143 +00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:05,479 +are actually something that you like + +144 +00:06:03,759 --> 00:06:06,599 +writing writing with typ pints is + +145 +00:06:05,479 --> 00:06:09,240 +actually something that you can do with + +146 +00:06:06,599 --> 00:06:14,120 +code generation models and um + +147 +00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:16,680 +constraints such as like it should it + +148 +00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:20,199 +should meet certain speed requirements + +149 +00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:21,520 +or it should um you know use certain + +150 +00:06:20,199 --> 00:06:22,960 +libraries or something like that are + +151 +00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,840 +also constraints that you could add I + +152 +00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:26,120 +didn't put that on this slide here that + +153 +00:06:24,840 --> 00:06:28,319 +might come in the natural language + +154 +00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:30,639 +description but it could be something + +155 +00:06:28,319 --> 00:06:32,759 +separate and then you know the output is + +156 +00:06:30,639 --> 00:06:36,759 +whatever code you want + +157 +00:06:32,759 --> 00:06:38,240 +to so um how many people are using like + +158 +00:06:36,759 --> 00:06:41,000 +GitHub + +159 +00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:46,160 +co-pilot like what + +160 +00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:47,759 +percentage maybe about half okay um how + +161 +00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:49,840 +many people are using another like + +162 +00:06:47,759 --> 00:06:56,080 +assisted coding tool other than GitHub + +163 +00:06:49,840 --> 00:06:57,400 +coet yeah g gp4 gp4 is an could be an + +164 +00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,680 +assisted coding tool I'm talking more + +165 +00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:02,400 +like something that's actually in your + +166 +00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:04,759 +IDE something yeah anybody + +167 +00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:07,680 +else does anyone use + +168 +00:07:04,759 --> 00:07:13,639 +cursor no + +169 +00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:18,039 +um yeah cursor yeah okay so + +170 +00:07:13,639 --> 00:07:20,919 +yeah Co collab uh Ai and collab yeah so + +171 +00:07:18,039 --> 00:07:24,080 +um so I think there are a lot of these + +172 +00:07:20,919 --> 00:07:26,879 +uh going around I I use co-pilot myself + +173 +00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:28,639 +I have not used cursor I do use GPD 4 um + +174 +00:07:26,879 --> 00:07:30,599 +and I'll I'll show you an example of how + +175 +00:07:28,639 --> 00:07:32,919 +I use them different + +176 +00:07:30,599 --> 00:07:34,360 +um if you haven't used copilot hopefully + +177 +00:07:32,919 --> 00:07:39,599 +this will + +178 +00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:42,599 +work um I just made a a simple + +179 +00:07:39,599 --> 00:07:42,599 +video + +180 +00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:49,520 +oops okay that's not working but anyway + +181 +00:07:46,159 --> 00:07:51,000 +you um you type your uh you know you + +182 +00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:54,319 +type and it basically completes your + +183 +00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:56,639 +code so this is this is an example here + +184 +00:07:54,319 --> 00:07:58,599 +and I didn't write any of this code + +185 +00:07:56,639 --> 00:08:02,360 +actually I just wrote the comments and + +186 +00:07:58,599 --> 00:08:04,000 +then it filled in the the actual C and + +187 +00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:05,639 +also I didn't exactly check if it's + +188 +00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:08,080 +correct or not + +189 +00:08:05,639 --> 00:08:11,120 +so if there's any mistake it's co + +190 +00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:15,159 +Pilot's fault not my fault but um I it + +191 +00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:15,159 +looked correct to me so + +192 +00:08:15,759 --> 00:08:21,120 +um and oh by the way you get to use it + +193 +00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:22,800 +for free with your CMU account so if you + +194 +00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:24,120 +uh if you don't want to use it but don't + +195 +00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,919 +want to pay for it you're and left + +196 +00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:31,639 +because you can use + +197 +00:08:25,919 --> 00:08:36,320 +it um another example uh is gd4 or uh + +198 +00:08:31,639 --> 00:08:38,519 +more recently Cloud 3 um and basically + +199 +00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:40,680 +this can do a different variety of + +200 +00:08:38,519 --> 00:08:43,719 +things so we talked about screenshots + +201 +00:08:40,680 --> 00:08:45,720 +and basically I asked Claude to create a + +202 +00:08:43,719 --> 00:08:48,399 +react app that replicates the claw + +203 +00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:50,240 +interface by giving it a screenshot and + +204 +00:08:48,399 --> 00:08:52,560 +asking it create a react app that looks + +205 +00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:55,200 +like the screenshot and then it gave me + +206 +00:08:52,560 --> 00:09:00,800 +a whole bunch of text and in the end it + +207 +00:08:55,200 --> 00:09:03,320 +started um making this uh container here + +208 +00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:08,040 +um + +209 +00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:11,040 +and this uh it basically is skipping + +210 +00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:12,800 +some of the styling stuff uh because + +211 +00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,480 +large language models I I think they're + +212 +00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:16,560 +basically trained so that they don't + +213 +00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:19,959 +give really really long responses + +214 +00:09:16,560 --> 00:09:21,320 +because like if you uh asked for + +215 +00:09:19,959 --> 00:09:23,640 +something that would take a really + +216 +00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:25,519 +really long time and then the model just + +217 +00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,880 +complied and gave that to you for a + +218 +00:09:25,519 --> 00:09:29,000 +really really long time it would cost + +219 +00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:30,680 +them a lot of money so I feel like they + +220 +00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,440 +they B try to train the models to only + +221 +00:09:30,680 --> 00:09:37,160 +out at like a thousand tokens at a time + +222 +00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:38,959 +or something like that so um it it won't + +223 +00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,839 +actually go out and program the whole + +224 +00:09:38,959 --> 00:09:43,120 +project for you but with a little + +225 +00:09:40,839 --> 00:09:44,680 +cajoling if you say okay now implement + +226 +00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:48,519 +this part now implement this part now + +227 +00:09:44,680 --> 00:09:49,959 +implement this part um you uh you can + +228 +00:09:48,519 --> 00:09:53,040 +end up with some pretty interesting + +229 +00:09:49,959 --> 00:09:55,680 +stuff and let me + +230 +00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:57,120 +uh let me see if I can I can show you an + +231 +00:09:55,680 --> 00:10:01,320 +example + +232 +00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:01,320 +so I I know a little bit of + +233 +00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:07,040 +react um the front end framework but I + +234 +00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:09,839 +don't know a whole lot but recently + +235 +00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:14,279 +we've been um working on an open-source + +236 +00:10:09,839 --> 00:10:18,959 +assisted coding app and I most of this + +237 +00:10:14,279 --> 00:10:21,519 +was just written by quad um it's uh I I + +238 +00:10:18,959 --> 00:10:23,079 +said I want an app that on the left side + +239 +00:10:21,519 --> 00:10:26,160 +it has a chat window and then on the + +240 +00:10:23,079 --> 00:10:28,240 +right side it has three uh three panes + +241 +00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:30,120 +one is a terminal one is a planner and + +242 +00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:32,200 +one is a code editor + +243 +00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:33,880 +and um so it gave me something it was + +244 +00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:37,399 +kind of ugly so I said okay make the + +245 +00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:40,639 +background black um change the CSS file + +246 +00:10:37,399 --> 00:10:43,639 +so that um you have like a user icon and + +247 +00:10:40,639 --> 00:10:46,040 +a robot icon and stuff like that and + +248 +00:10:43,639 --> 00:10:49,240 +after this I I wrote very little of this + +249 +00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:51,079 +code I wrote like 1% of this code or + +250 +00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:54,480 +something like that and it's able to to + +251 +00:10:51,079 --> 00:10:57,880 +do these sorts of things for you um so + +252 +00:10:54,480 --> 00:11:01,000 +if you don't like writing front ends + +253 +00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:03,880 +good luck uh or good good news that you + +254 +00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:05,560 +uh can come up with a passable front end + +255 +00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:07,519 +without uh without actually having to + +256 +00:11:05,560 --> 00:11:08,720 +write it nonetheless you know good front + +257 +00:11:07,519 --> 00:11:10,200 +end Engineers will come up with + +258 +00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:13,639 +something much more beautiful than that + +259 +00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:15,880 +so um so basically why do I why did I + +260 +00:11:13,639 --> 00:11:19,959 +want to say this I think um GitHub + +261 +00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:20,839 +co-pilot and Pla or gp4 serve very + +262 +00:11:19,959 --> 00:11:25,200 +different + +263 +00:11:20,839 --> 00:11:27,360 +purposes um GitHub co-pilot is code + +264 +00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:30,160 +completion and it mostly works for + +265 +00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:32,440 +shorter things so it's like your next + +266 +00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:34,760 +thought in your code in code that you + +267 +00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:37,560 +know pretty well something like plot or + +268 +00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:40,639 +gp4 is much better for really long + +269 +00:11:37,560 --> 00:11:44,680 +things um where you want to build like a + +270 +00:11:40,639 --> 00:11:47,040 +full class or something like that and I + +271 +00:11:44,680 --> 00:11:48,480 +also have found that if you're coding in + +272 +00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:50,079 +a language that you're very familiar + +273 +00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,560 +with copilot might be more useful + +274 +00:11:50,079 --> 00:11:52,959 +because you want fine grain control and + +275 +00:11:51,560 --> 00:11:55,040 +you want it to fill out things to make + +276 +00:11:52,959 --> 00:11:56,519 +it faster whereas if you're coding in a + +277 +00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,040 +language that you're not very familiar + +278 +00:11:56,519 --> 00:11:59,680 +with something like Claud is good + +279 +00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:01,839 +because you can write a whole you know + +280 +00:11:59,680 --> 00:12:04,800 +program forties so these are the + +281 +00:12:01,839 --> 00:12:07,680 +differences another thing is GitHub + +282 +00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:09,240 +co-pilot needs to be frighteningly fast + +283 +00:12:07,680 --> 00:12:10,839 +because it needs to move at the speed + +284 +00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,880 +that like programmers are thinking in + +285 +00:12:10,839 --> 00:12:14,920 +programming next whereas something like + +286 +00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:16,800 +Claud it doesn't you know using it in + +287 +00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:18,880 +the way that I use cloud here doesn't + +288 +00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:22,600 +really matter because I can say uh + +289 +00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:24,079 +programing me a you know a web app and + +290 +00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,360 +then I can go and have dinner and come + +291 +00:12:24,079 --> 00:12:28,199 +back and have a web app and I'd be + +292 +00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:31,720 +perfectly happy with that right so um + +293 +00:12:28,199 --> 00:12:37,199 +the latency request are also + +294 +00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:37,199 +different cool um any any questions here + +295 +00:12:37,399 --> 00:12:42,600 +yeah that debugging code they + +296 +00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:47,959 +are the well so + +297 +00:12:45,839 --> 00:12:50,760 +co-pilot I haven't actually tried it + +298 +00:12:47,959 --> 00:12:52,480 +that much um if I wanted to debug code + +299 +00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:54,880 +I'd probably use something like pla or + +300 +00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:56,360 +gp4 just because actually I'll I'll + +301 +00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:58,320 +mention this in a second but co-pilot's + +302 +00:12:56,360 --> 00:13:00,360 +a much smaller model uh because it needs + +303 +00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,839 +to be very fast or what they're using in + +304 +00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:04,040 +copilot is a smaller model because it + +305 +00:13:01,839 --> 00:13:05,519 +needs to be very fast so I would + +306 +00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:08,360 +probably use a bigger model for anything + +307 +00:13:05,519 --> 00:13:10,120 +that required like good understanding I + +308 +00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,480 +think it's passable at debugging code + +309 +00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:13,079 +but it won't find the really difficult + +310 +00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:15,639 +things and it probably won't find things + +311 +00:13:13,079 --> 00:13:18,279 +that require spanning across uh multiple + +312 +00:13:15,639 --> 00:13:21,240 +files but I I'm not 100% sure about that + +313 +00:13:18,279 --> 00:13:25,519 +like I think it's worth + +314 +00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:25,519 +testing um any other + +315 +00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:30,120 +questions okay so if I haven't convinced + +316 +00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:32,360 +you that as software developers you + +317 +00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:34,880 +should be using this hopefully this next + +318 +00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:37,480 +uh this next slide will so this was a + +319 +00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:41,199 +study that was run by GitHub uh shortly + +320 +00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:43,160 +after um after co-pilot came out and so + +321 +00:13:41,199 --> 00:13:45,440 +why do we do code generation why are + +322 +00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:47,240 +people very excited about it so the + +323 +00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:50,240 +first is U making software isn't + +324 +00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:53,480 +important um and I recently calculated + +325 +00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:55,920 +what from some Labor Statistics and the + +326 +00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:59,440 +total amount that software developers + +327 +00:13:55,920 --> 00:14:01,880 +make um in a year is $175 billion so + +328 +00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:05,000 +that's providing at least that much you + +329 +00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:06,800 +know value so it's a very high value uh + +330 +00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:09,079 +profession so if we could make it faster + +331 +00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:11,480 +you know it would have even more + +332 +00:14:09,079 --> 00:14:12,920 +value another thing is code generation + +333 +00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:15,680 +leads to large improvements in + +334 +00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:17,160 +productivity so uh get Hub ran this + +335 +00:14:15,680 --> 00:14:18,680 +study where they randomly assigned + +336 +00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:21,519 +developers to groups who would either + +337 +00:14:18,680 --> 00:14:24,440 +use co-pilot or not use co-pilot and + +338 +00:14:21,519 --> 00:14:26,480 +they assigned them the same task and + +339 +00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:30,759 +basically the people who use copilot + +340 +00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:34,199 +their rate of um completion went up by + +341 +00:14:30,759 --> 00:14:36,320 +8% and they finished um in about 40% of + +342 +00:14:34,199 --> 00:14:39,279 +the time of the people who didn't use it + +343 +00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:43,639 +and so I think this + +344 +00:14:39,279 --> 00:14:45,920 +is or uh yeah they say 55% less times so + +345 +00:14:43,639 --> 00:14:47,759 +this is very impressive but it's also + +346 +00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:50,199 +not at all surprising if you're using a + +347 +00:14:47,759 --> 00:14:52,880 +Cod like assisted coding assistant it + +348 +00:14:50,199 --> 00:14:54,360 +just makes you code faster also if you + +349 +00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:56,040 +don't like writing doc strings it's + +350 +00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,519 +really good at writing doc strings so + +351 +00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:59,680 +you can write documentation for your + +352 +00:14:57,519 --> 00:15:00,759 +code not wor about so + +353 +00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:04,399 +okay + +354 +00:15:00,759 --> 00:15:07,000 +cool um + +355 +00:15:04,399 --> 00:15:09,720 +so there are differences between code + +356 +00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:14,000 +and natural language uh and I've listed + +357 +00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:15,560 +a few of them here and the differences + +358 +00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:18,120 +between code and natural language also + +359 +00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:20,160 +affect how we build models for this test + +360 +00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:23,160 +so the first one is that code has strict + +361 +00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:26,000 +grammar uh if you make a small mistake + +362 +00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:27,920 +in your code grammar usually it will + +363 +00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,839 +just break and your program won't work + +364 +00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:31,319 +so you need to be very careful as + +365 +00:15:29,839 --> 00:15:32,560 +opposed to natural language grammar + +366 +00:15:31,319 --> 00:15:33,600 +where you can make small mistakes and it + +367 +00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:36,120 +doesn't make a + +368 +00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:40,120 +difference another thing is in code you + +369 +00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:42,720 +know the semantic flow of the code and + +370 +00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:44,160 +so we know that certain variables + +371 +00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,560 +correspond to each other we know that + +372 +00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:48,639 +they're flowing through the program in a + +373 +00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:50,880 +certain way another thing is code is + +374 +00:15:48,639 --> 00:15:54,120 +executable so we can actually execute it + +375 +00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:56,199 +and observe the result unlike in natural + +376 +00:15:54,120 --> 00:16:00,000 +language and another important thing is + +377 +00:15:56,199 --> 00:16:03,399 +code is created incrementally so code is + +378 +00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:05,680 +not you know unlike text text is also + +379 +00:16:03,399 --> 00:16:07,399 +created incrementally but it's not + +380 +00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,720 +usually you write it once you might + +381 +00:16:07,399 --> 00:16:11,199 +revise it a little bit and then you're + +382 +00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:14,040 +done and you you don't need to touch it + +383 +00:16:11,199 --> 00:16:15,399 +again but um in code you touch it over + +384 +00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:17,800 +and over and over again as you develop a + +385 +00:16:15,399 --> 00:16:17,800 +sof + +386 +00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:23,040 +project so if we look at code Generation + +387 +00:16:21,079 --> 00:16:27,079 +Um I would like to talk a little bit + +388 +00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:29,079 +about uh subtasks and data sets next so + +389 +00:16:27,079 --> 00:16:30,480 +the most famous data set for a Cod code + +390 +00:16:29,079 --> 00:16:34,279 +generation nowadays is something called + +391 +00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:38,680 +human ofel um this is a very nice data + +392 +00:16:34,279 --> 00:16:42,480 +set um for a number of reasons uh I + +393 +00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:44,240 +think it is used too much um nonetheless + +394 +00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:46,759 +and I I think there are better data sets + +395 +00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:51,240 +that we maybe should be using more but + +396 +00:16:46,759 --> 00:16:54,000 +basically human ofel is um it has + +397 +00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:55,920 +examples of usage of the Python standard + +398 +00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:59,360 +Library where some are easier some are + +399 +00:16:55,920 --> 00:17:02,880 +harder and just to give some examples + +400 +00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:06,760 +uh we're saying given a nonempty list of + +401 +00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:10,480 +integers return the sum of all the odd + +402 +00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:12,959 +elements that are in even positions so + +403 +00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:16,079 +it's kind of like a elite code + +404 +00:17:12,959 --> 00:17:19,199 +style you know program but maybe one of + +405 +00:17:16,079 --> 00:17:22,400 +the easier ones and then in order to + +406 +00:17:19,199 --> 00:17:25,240 +solve that you find all of the put + +407 +00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:28,480 +elements in even positions and then you + +408 +00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:29,679 +only return them if uh the value itself + +409 +00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:32,799 +is + +410 +00:17:29,679 --> 00:17:34,200 +um so like you can do that in a oneliner + +411 +00:17:32,799 --> 00:17:36,600 +but you need to think about it a little + +412 +00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:38,919 +bit um and then you have + +413 +00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:43,120 +more + +414 +00:17:38,919 --> 00:17:43,810 +um returns encoded uh sorry takes an + +415 +00:17:43,120 --> 00:17:46,910 +input + +416 +00:17:43,810 --> 00:17:46,910 +[Music] + +417 +00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:50,919 +string yeah actually sorry this is from + +418 +00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:53,600 +the paper I didn't read it before I copy + +419 +00:17:50,919 --> 00:17:57,080 +pasted it in here but um yeah that's a + +420 +00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:58,880 +decoding one and one one thing about + +421 +00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:02,240 +this uh that's important to know is it + +422 +00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:04,200 +only has 164 examples so it's actually a + +423 +00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:07,600 +relatively small number of + +424 +00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:09,440 +examples um it's also just the python + +425 +00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:11,200 +standard Library so it's not testing + +426 +00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:14,960 +usage of any other + +427 +00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:17,520 +libraries um so these two things + +428 +00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:19,720 +together make it not the most realistic + +429 +00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:21,880 +you know examination of your programming + +430 +00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:23,640 +skills just like leak code is not the + +431 +00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:25,640 +most realistic examination of your + +432 +00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:28,240 +programming skills but you know I don't + +433 +00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:31,720 +know companies use it anyway so maybe + +434 +00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:35,159 +human devel is reasonable but um so then + +435 +00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:37,120 +we go um into the inputs and outputs uh + +436 +00:18:35,159 --> 00:18:40,679 +the inputs and outputs usually include a + +437 +00:18:37,120 --> 00:18:43,440 +doc string um some input and output + +438 +00:18:40,679 --> 00:18:47,640 +examples and then they have tests to + +439 +00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:47,640 +verify the accuracy of your + +440 +00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:52,840 +outputs so the metric that's used to + +441 +00:18:50,559 --> 00:18:58,919 +evaluate these systems is something + +442 +00:18:52,840 --> 00:19:01,400 +called passet K and the basic idea is um + +443 +00:18:58,919 --> 00:19:03,400 +we generate K examples will at least one + +444 +00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:06,960 +of them pass the unit + +445 +00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:10,720 +tests and the idea here is + +446 +00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:13,480 +that if we have models we might want to + +447 +00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:14,960 +generate like well there there's a + +448 +00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:17,480 +couple reasons why we would care about + +449 +00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:19,880 +this pass it one is kind of obvious + +450 +00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:23,200 +because we generate one and then we + +451 +00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:26,480 +measure how um you know how likely it is + +452 +00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:29,280 +to pass unit tests but pass it five why + +453 +00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:30,760 +would we care about passet five well + +454 +00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,159 +number one maybe you could show five + +455 +00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,240 +programs to a person and they could + +456 +00:19:32,159 --> 00:19:37,039 +choose the one that they like the best + +457 +00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:39,919 +or maybe you could have unit test write + +458 +00:19:37,039 --> 00:19:41,720 +unit tests in advance and then generate + +459 +00:19:39,919 --> 00:19:43,880 +five programs check which one pass the + +460 +00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:45,480 +unit tests and then use the ones only + +461 +00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:48,360 +that pass the unit test or something + +462 +00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:51,000 +like that so there's also some interest + +463 +00:19:48,360 --> 00:19:53,320 +in uh whether you could generate you + +464 +00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,600 +know multiple examples and then pick a + +465 +00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,919 +good + +466 +00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:59,080 +one there's a little bit of nuance in + +467 +00:19:56,919 --> 00:20:02,120 +how this is actually calculated so + +468 +00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:04,240 +basically um if you generate only K like + +469 +00:20:02,120 --> 00:20:05,960 +if you if you sample only one example + +470 +00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:07,400 +there's a lot of variance in whether you + +471 +00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:10,159 +get it right or not so what they + +472 +00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:13,440 +actually do is they generate like 10 + +473 +00:20:10,159 --> 00:20:15,600 +outputs or 200 outputs and then they + +474 +00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:18,159 +calculate the expected number of those + +475 +00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:20,320 +that the expected number of cases where + +476 +00:20:18,159 --> 00:20:23,280 +that would pass by just doing a little + +477 +00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:25,440 +bit of uh like math calculating the + +478 +00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:28,679 +number of combinations where one passes + +479 +00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:30,720 +or one doesn't and here k n is the total + +480 +00:20:28,679 --> 00:20:34,240 +number you generate C is the number of + +481 +00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:36,520 +correct ansers and K is uh your passive + +482 +00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,520 +K + +483 +00:20:37,159 --> 00:20:43,360 +value + +484 +00:20:38,919 --> 00:20:46,280 +cool um so any any questions about + +485 +00:20:43,360 --> 00:20:47,880 +these you'll you'll see a bunch of uh + +486 +00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:50,520 +people evaluating on this human ofel + +487 +00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:52,760 +with passive K including all of the you + +488 +00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:57,520 +know new llms that come out it's a very + +489 +00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:57,520 +standard Edge yeah + +490 +00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:06,039 +is yeah that that's a good um question I + +491 +00:21:04,919 --> 00:21:07,840 +think I'm going to cover that a little + +492 +00:21:06,039 --> 00:21:11,039 +bit later but I might as well say it now + +493 +00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:13,640 +so llms + +494 +00:21:11,039 --> 00:21:15,080 +are llms are good at code because they + +495 +00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:16,880 +intentionally include a lot of code + +496 +00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:19,520 +training data in LL training and the + +497 +00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:22,679 +reason for that is twofold um the first + +498 +00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:25,320 +one is that code generation is a huge + +499 +00:21:22,679 --> 00:21:26,960 +application of llms right now and like + +500 +00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:28,679 +if you had an llm that couldn't do code + +501 +00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:32,320 +generation it'd be kind of embarrassing + +502 +00:21:28,679 --> 00:21:33,960 +so um Everybody includes this number two + +503 +00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:36,600 +uh code has been shown to improve kind + +504 +00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:38,080 +of the reasoning abilities of llms and + +505 +00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:41,640 +because of that people include code for + +506 +00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:43,440 +that purpose so yeah um it's not that + +507 +00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:45,600 +LMS are inherently good at code or + +508 +00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:48,840 +anything it's that they have lots of + +509 +00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:51,640 +lots of code TR and I'll I'll explain + +510 +00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:54,279 +exactly how they construct this + +511 +00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:57,200 +St and actually if you remember last + +512 +00:21:54,279 --> 00:21:59,640 +time uh I talked about the pile which + +513 +00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:01,039 +was or not last time but uh when I + +514 +00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:03,159 +talked about the tour of large language + +515 +00:22:01,039 --> 00:22:06,360 +models I talked about the pile and the + +516 +00:22:03,159 --> 00:22:09,799 +pile is almost half toe for + +517 +00:22:06,360 --> 00:22:12,000 +example cool any other + +518 +00:22:09,799 --> 00:22:17,240 +questions + +519 +00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:19,320 +okay so another uh a first Improvement + +520 +00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:22,080 +or at least change that we can make to + +521 +00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:23,880 +human ofel is uh going to broader + +522 +00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:26,720 +domains and covering a broader variety + +523 +00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:28,559 +of libraries and this is a data set that + +524 +00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:30,880 +we created actually a long time ago but + +525 +00:22:28,559 --> 00:22:33,799 +but we recently added execution based + +526 +00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:36,159 +evaluation to it it's called konola and + +527 +00:22:33,799 --> 00:22:36,919 +the execution based uh evaluation one is + +528 +00:22:36,159 --> 00:22:40,360 +called + +529 +00:22:36,919 --> 00:22:43,039 +odex and basically what we did here is + +530 +00:22:40,360 --> 00:22:45,720 +we scraped data from stack Overflow + +531 +00:22:43,039 --> 00:22:48,039 +including uh inputs and output uh + +532 +00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:50,559 +Solutions and then based on this scraped + +533 +00:22:48,039 --> 00:22:54,240 +data we uh did some manual curation to + +534 +00:22:50,559 --> 00:22:57,640 +turn these into like actual questions um + +535 +00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:59,640 +and answers about how you could write uh + +536 +00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:01,799 +solve programming + +537 +00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:04,080 +problems and + +538 +00:23:01,799 --> 00:23:05,600 +um because this is scraped from stack + +539 +00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:09,159 +Overflow there's no restriction that + +540 +00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:10,520 +this is from the python standard Library + +541 +00:23:09,159 --> 00:23:13,200 +which also means that it can cover a + +542 +00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:14,919 +very wide variety of libraries and it's + +543 +00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:16,760 +approximately according to the + +544 +00:23:14,919 --> 00:23:20,320 +popularity of the libraries because we + +545 +00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:24,159 +took popular posts so um that's a a good + +546 +00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:25,400 +thing uh you know it it is a reasonable + +547 +00:23:24,159 --> 00:23:26,559 +way to come up with a realistic + +548 +00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:29,520 +distribution of libraries that you + +549 +00:23:26,559 --> 00:23:31,799 +should be looking at um odex adds + +550 +00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:34,159 +execution based evaluation previously + +551 +00:23:31,799 --> 00:23:36,679 +what we had was we only had the snippet + +552 +00:23:34,159 --> 00:23:40,600 +that was able to solve the problem as + +553 +00:23:36,679 --> 00:23:42,360 +opposed to um as opposed to being able + +554 +00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:46,880 +to execute unit + +555 +00:23:42,360 --> 00:23:49,440 +tests and just to show how this has a + +556 +00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:52,000 +broader variety of libraries on the top + +557 +00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:53,919 +we have the distribution of odex + +558 +00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:57,320 +libraries and we can see about half of + +559 +00:23:53,919 --> 00:23:59,600 +them use libraries and this includes a + +560 +00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:01,279 +variety of things including pandas + +561 +00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:04,799 +numpy + +562 +00:24:01,279 --> 00:24:06,400 +um reg o selections you know all of + +563 +00:24:04,799 --> 00:24:09,279 +these should be libraries that look + +564 +00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:14,559 +familiar to you um in contrast if we + +565 +00:24:09,279 --> 00:24:17,200 +look at human eval human eval is right + +566 +00:24:14,559 --> 00:24:18,840 +here so you can see almost all of the + +567 +00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,600 +questions require no libraries and all + +568 +00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:22,120 +of the other ones require libraries that + +569 +00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:24,360 +were included in the pipe onstead + +570 +00:24:22,120 --> 00:24:27,640 +libraries so + +571 +00:24:24,360 --> 00:24:29,120 +um in reality this is probably more what + +572 +00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,120 +your program in queries are going to + +573 +00:24:29,120 --> 00:24:31,240 +look like they're not going to look like + +574 +00:24:30,120 --> 00:24:33,600 +lead code they're going to look like + +575 +00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,600 +using + +576 +00:24:35,360 --> 00:24:42,080 +APS so um originally when we did conal + +577 +00:24:40,039 --> 00:24:44,200 +we didn't use execution based evaluation + +578 +00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:47,480 +because creating unit tests uh for lots + +579 +00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:51,360 +of stack Overflow posts is hard + +580 +00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:53,640 +um specifically there's two issues the + +581 +00:24:51,360 --> 00:24:55,000 +first one is that it requires that code + +582 +00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:58,880 +be easily + +583 +00:24:55,000 --> 00:25:02,320 +executable um now think about + +584 +00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:04,559 +how you would do that for Matt plot lib + +585 +00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:06,200 +for example how would you create a unit + +586 +00:25:04,559 --> 00:25:08,080 +test to test whether Matt plot lib + +587 +00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:10,760 +successfully created a bar chart for + +588 +00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:12,440 +something it's kind of tough right you + +589 +00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,840 +like you would have to get the image and + +590 +00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:16,919 +you'd have to confirm that the image was + +591 +00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:21,200 +a bar chart and uh other things like + +592 +00:25:16,919 --> 00:25:22,720 +that um even worse what if it was uh + +593 +00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:25,600 +kind of like a server framework like + +594 +00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:27,440 +ajango how would you confirm that ajango + +595 +00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:30,559 +you know server is working appropriately + +596 +00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:32,600 +and that's kind of tricky so um actually + +597 +00:25:30,559 --> 00:25:34,480 +coming up with realistic unit tests for + +598 +00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:36,919 +real programs can be + +599 +00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:38,840 +difficult um another problem with + +600 +00:25:36,919 --> 00:25:41,640 +execution based evaluation is it ignores + +601 +00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:45,320 +stylistic considerations so I could + +602 +00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:48,279 +write very spaghetti like very spaghetti + +603 +00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:50,200 +code and as long as it executed properly + +604 +00:25:48,279 --> 00:25:52,559 +it would still be judged as correct and + +605 +00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:54,399 +sometimes that's actually an issue so + +606 +00:25:52,559 --> 00:25:56,360 +usually it's not a problem because + +607 +00:25:54,399 --> 00:25:58,600 +language models write reasonably good + +608 +00:25:56,360 --> 00:26:00,600 +code but sometimes you want to match the + +609 +00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:05,039 +or other things like that + +610 +00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:06,559 +so some alternatives are blue score + +611 +00:26:05,039 --> 00:26:09,000 +which we've talked about before it's + +612 +00:26:06,559 --> 00:26:12,679 +basically count calculating the engram + +613 +00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:16,919 +overlap between a gold standard human uh + +614 +00:26:12,679 --> 00:26:20,440 +implementation and a uh in the system + +615 +00:26:16,919 --> 00:26:24,000 +output and there's also specifically + +616 +00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:26,480 +adapted methods for evaluating code and + +617 +00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:29,080 +so there's a method called code blue and + +618 +00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:31,360 +basically the way code blue works is it + +619 +00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:35,240 +also considers the syntax and semantic + +620 +00:26:31,360 --> 00:26:37,080 +flow of the code so it measures overlap + +621 +00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:40,120 +between + +622 +00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:42,120 +strings in the original code but it also + +623 +00:26:40,120 --> 00:26:48,640 +considers overlap between the syntax + +624 +00:26:42,120 --> 00:26:53,000 +trees of the code and uh whether the + +625 +00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:56,320 +um these like semantic information flow + +626 +00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:57,919 +graphs look similar so uh all all of + +627 +00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:59,440 +these things work together to calculate + +628 +00:26:57,919 --> 00:27:02,720 +the C + +629 +00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:04,480 +St one thing I I should mention is how + +630 +00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:06,840 +do we get these syntax trees in the + +631 +00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:09,039 +first place um for example if we're + +632 +00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:12,919 +talking about python there's a python + +633 +00:27:09,039 --> 00:27:14,760 +Library uh for ab abstract syntax tree + +634 +00:27:12,919 --> 00:27:16,559 +it's just part of the standard library + +635 +00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:18,320 +and it's necessary to run the python + +636 +00:27:16,559 --> 00:27:20,559 +interpreter so you can just get these + +637 +00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:24,320 +trees directly from the python ASD + +638 +00:27:20,559 --> 00:27:25,880 +Library uh not hard to do uh for this I + +639 +00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,840 +forget what they did in the code blue + +640 +00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:30,679 +thing but there are uh analyzers that + +641 +00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:32,120 +allow you to analyze this control FL so + +642 +00:27:30,679 --> 00:27:34,159 +this is taking advantage of the fact + +643 +00:27:32,120 --> 00:27:37,440 +that code is you know predictable it has + +644 +00:27:34,159 --> 00:27:41,480 +predictable syntax and you can you + +645 +00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:43,960 +can6 um one disadvantage of blue and + +646 +00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:45,799 +code blue of course is that you know you + +647 +00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:47,679 +can write two very different looking + +648 +00:27:45,799 --> 00:27:49,559 +programs that actually are both correct + +649 +00:27:47,679 --> 00:27:51,799 +and blue will underestimate the goodness + +650 +00:27:49,559 --> 00:27:54,440 +of those programs so maybe using both of + +651 +00:27:51,799 --> 00:27:57,159 +them together is uh is + +652 +00:27:54,440 --> 00:28:00,120 +appropriate uh if if you can write unit + +653 +00:27:57,159 --> 00:28:00,120 +Test please + +654 +00:28:00,559 --> 00:28:04,279 +um another one which I'll just cover + +655 +00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,399 +very briefly we talked about BT score + +656 +00:28:04,279 --> 00:28:08,159 +before when I was talking about + +657 +00:28:05,399 --> 00:28:11,120 +evaluation of uh you know generated text + +658 +00:28:08,159 --> 00:28:13,480 +and there's also code BT score which um + +659 +00:28:11,120 --> 00:28:15,799 +we uh we created here at + +660 +00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:20,080 +CMU and it's basically an embedding + +661 +00:28:15,799 --> 00:28:21,760 +based metric uh to compare code and so + +662 +00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:23,399 +Bert score if you remember basically + +663 +00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:25,679 +what it did is it calculated the coign + +664 +00:28:23,399 --> 00:28:27,840 +similarity between each of the tokens uh + +665 +00:28:25,679 --> 00:28:30,159 +between a generated text and a reference + +666 +00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:34,279 +text we do exactly the same thing for + +667 +00:28:30,159 --> 00:28:36,080 +code um so we calculate the Sim cosine + +668 +00:28:34,279 --> 00:28:39,200 +similarity between tokens for a + +669 +00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:42,960 +reference code and generated + +670 +00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:45,000 +code and we released a model called + +671 +00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:46,559 +codir which was basically Bert but + +672 +00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:49,440 +continued trained on lots and lots of + +673 +00:28:46,559 --> 00:28:51,840 +code uh that allowed us to do that and + +674 +00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:55,480 +um basically we were able to demonstrate + +675 +00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:59,200 +that this gave better correlation both + +676 +00:28:55,480 --> 00:29:01,480 +with final execution accuracy and with + +677 +00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:05,200 +human judgments of whether the the code + +678 +00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:08,000 +was correct and so um some people uh + +679 +00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:09,559 +created a data set of human correctness + +680 +00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:12,559 +judgments and we were able to put a + +681 +00:29:09,559 --> 00:29:14,240 +little better with that as well um why + +682 +00:29:12,559 --> 00:29:15,640 +do we care about correlation with + +683 +00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:17,399 +execution + +684 +00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:20,200 +accuracy + +685 +00:29:17,399 --> 00:29:22,320 +um this is important in the cases when + +686 +00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:23,559 +we can't create unit tests or when + +687 +00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:26,120 +creating unit test would be too + +688 +00:29:23,559 --> 00:29:27,519 +expensive so this gives us a better + +689 +00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:30,640 +approximation for what we would get if + +690 +00:29:27,519 --> 00:29:30,640 +we ran tests + +691 +00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:45,000 +in yeah so we did not we did not + +692 +00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:46,799 +consider code structure here uh would + +693 +00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:48,480 +different variable names affect it yes + +694 +00:29:46,799 --> 00:29:50,159 +different variable names would affect it + +695 +00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:51,799 +but not as much as the other metrics + +696 +00:29:50,159 --> 00:29:53,960 +which is why it's better why it has + +697 +00:29:51,799 --> 00:29:56,720 +better + +698 +00:29:53,960 --> 00:30:00,000 +correlations and like for example + +699 +00:29:56,720 --> 00:30:03,679 +codir I imagine probably gives very + +700 +00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:05,120 +similar representations to I and J just + +701 +00:30:03,679 --> 00:30:07,960 +because they're both used in iterators + +702 +00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:09,039 +all the time whereas uh a normal Burt + +703 +00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:10,960 +model would give very different + +704 +00:30:09,039 --> 00:30:12,760 +representations to I and J right because + +705 +00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:14,960 +I is like a personal pronoun and J is + +706 +00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:17,200 +not so um that's the reason why + +707 +00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:20,399 +continued training would + +708 +00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:24,799 +help cool any other + +709 +00:30:20,399 --> 00:30:26,640 +things okay so another um another place + +710 +00:30:24,799 --> 00:30:29,480 +where code generation can be useful uh + +711 +00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:33,440 +we had the example of collab uh is in + +712 +00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:36,200 +collab notebooks and this or in uh data + +713 +00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:38,519 +science notebooks this paper was by uh + +714 +00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:41,440 +Google so this might actually even be + +715 +00:30:38,519 --> 00:30:43,960 +used in the collab thing because collab + +716 +00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:45,640 +is a Google thing um but data data + +717 +00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:47,320 +science notebooks allow for incremental + +718 +00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:50,519 +implementation I'm sure a lot of people + +719 +00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:53,559 +here or almost everybody here uses them + +720 +00:30:50,519 --> 00:30:55,279 +um and another interesting thing is say + +721 +00:30:53,559 --> 00:30:57,519 +allow for evaluation of code generation + +722 +00:30:55,279 --> 00:30:58,960 +in context uh or incremental code + +723 +00:30:57,519 --> 00:31:00,639 +generation + +724 +00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:02,720 +and so you start out with like a + +725 +00:31:00,639 --> 00:31:04,880 +notebook and then you have AAL + +726 +00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:06,600 +languageand and then youate the output + +727 +00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:09,240 +AAL language command you generate the + +728 +00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:10,799 +output etc etc so this is an extal + +729 +00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:14,519 +example from the STA + +730 +00:31:10,799 --> 00:31:17,519 +set um so this paper is very nice it it + +731 +00:31:14,519 --> 00:31:20,320 +has a lot of uh you know it's a nice + +732 +00:31:17,519 --> 00:31:21,720 +data set one other thing that was really + +733 +00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:24,200 +interesting from this paper is it + +734 +00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:27,919 +demonstrated the problem of data leakage + +735 +00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:29,679 +in evaluating models and this is a Rel + +736 +00:31:27,919 --> 00:31:32,440 +relatively large problem I don't know if + +737 +00:31:29,679 --> 00:31:33,799 +we have a silver bullet solution for + +738 +00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:36,120 +this but it's an important thing to be + +739 +00:31:33,799 --> 00:31:38,120 +aware of uh not just for code generation + +740 +00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:39,639 +but these are examples from code + +741 +00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:43,519 +generation + +742 +00:31:39,639 --> 00:31:45,679 +so here um in the arcade data set they + +743 +00:31:43,519 --> 00:31:48,519 +basically both evaluated existing + +744 +00:31:45,679 --> 00:31:51,720 +notebooks and they evaluated notebooks + +745 +00:31:48,519 --> 00:31:53,279 +that um existing notebooks that they got + +746 +00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:55,960 +from the web and they evaluated + +747 +00:31:53,279 --> 00:31:59,000 +notebooks that they actually created + +748 +00:31:55,960 --> 00:32:00,399 +themselves and there's very very Stark + +749 +00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:02,600 +difference between the notebooks that + +750 +00:32:00,399 --> 00:32:04,440 +were created on the web and the + +751 +00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:07,399 +notebooks that they evaluated themselves + +752 +00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:10,159 +so like most of the code generation + +753 +00:32:07,399 --> 00:32:11,679 +models except for Palm uh which was the + +754 +00:32:10,159 --> 00:32:14,760 +best model when they created this data + +755 +00:32:11,679 --> 00:32:17,360 +set did really poorly or did really well + +756 +00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:21,120 +on the existing data and quite poorly on + +757 +00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:25,279 +the new data um which is probably an + +758 +00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:28,159 +indication of um probably an indication + +759 +00:32:25,279 --> 00:32:29,720 +of the fact that you know this is to + +760 +00:32:28,159 --> 00:32:32,240 +some extent leaked into the training + +761 +00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:35,320 +data of the language models there was + +762 +00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:37,760 +also a very recent + +763 +00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:40,240 +um paper actually I think this might be + +764 +00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:43,159 +2024 there was a very recent paper that + +765 +00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:45,880 +did a similar thing uh where they + +766 +00:32:43,159 --> 00:32:48,440 +evaluated on human ofel and then their + +767 +00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:52,000 +live codebench in live codebench + +768 +00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:55,639 +basically what they did is they tried to + +769 +00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:58,519 +pick problems from Le code and other + +770 +00:32:55,639 --> 00:33:00,519 +websites that were more recent versus + +771 +00:32:58,519 --> 00:33:01,960 +less recent and they have some really + +772 +00:33:00,519 --> 00:33:04,880 +nice graphs in their paper where they + +773 +00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:06,519 +demonstrate that the less recent ones + +774 +00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:08,159 +before the training cut off have like a + +775 +00:33:06,519 --> 00:33:10,080 +high accuracy and then suddenly it drops + +776 +00:33:08,159 --> 00:33:12,639 +right at the trading C off of the the + +777 +00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:13,480 +models so this is something to to be + +778 +00:33:12,639 --> 00:33:17,360 +aware + +779 +00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:20,519 +of and what this figure is showing here + +780 +00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:24,039 +is this figure is showing on the xaxis + +781 +00:33:20,519 --> 00:33:26,840 +pass it one on the Live code bench easy + +782 +00:33:24,039 --> 00:33:28,679 +and then pass it one on human ofel so we + +783 +00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:31,480 +see this kn + +784 +00:33:28,679 --> 00:33:34,039 +correlation between + +785 +00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:35,919 +essentially like passing on life code + +786 +00:33:34,039 --> 00:33:37,399 +bench easy and passing on human ofel + +787 +00:33:35,919 --> 00:33:40,000 +then we have this group of models that + +788 +00:33:37,399 --> 00:33:42,159 +are kind of like up here and these are + +789 +00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:43,960 +ones where basically it's likely that + +790 +00:33:42,159 --> 00:33:46,480 +human ofel leaked into the training data + +791 +00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:48,840 +because they're getting better scores on + +792 +00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:50,919 +human ofel than you would expect that + +793 +00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:53,360 +they get uh you know just looking at + +794 +00:33:50,919 --> 00:33:55,360 +their uh you know performance on another + +795 +00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:57,320 +data set there's also a nice like + +796 +00:33:55,360 --> 00:34:00,000 +analogous one for math reasoning + +797 +00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:01,519 +problems um like this so this is + +798 +00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:03,039 +definitely something to be aware of if + +799 +00:34:01,519 --> 00:34:04,559 +you're looking only at like very + +800 +00:34:03,039 --> 00:34:06,200 +standard benchmarks that people are + +801 +00:34:04,559 --> 00:34:11,159 +trading + +802 +00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:11,159 +in cool um any questions about + +803 +00:34:12,119 --> 00:34:19,240 +this okay um another data set uh that I + +804 +00:34:17,720 --> 00:34:20,599 +I really like the concept of and + +805 +00:34:19,240 --> 00:34:22,919 +recently it's gotten a little bit of + +806 +00:34:20,599 --> 00:34:25,399 +Buzz because it was used in a um an + +807 +00:34:22,919 --> 00:34:28,399 +evaluation of a new coding assistant + +808 +00:34:25,399 --> 00:34:30,480 +called Devon but this is um + +809 +00:34:28,399 --> 00:34:32,240 +something called sbench and it's issues + +810 +00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:34,639 +from GitHub and code + +811 +00:34:32,240 --> 00:34:37,119 +bases uh is the input and you want to + +812 +00:34:34,639 --> 00:34:39,480 +generate a poll request to basically uh + +813 +00:34:37,119 --> 00:34:42,919 +solve these issues and so your input is + +814 +00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:45,800 +like data leak in gbdt due to warm start + +815 +00:34:42,919 --> 00:34:48,800 +this is about non standard then you have + +816 +00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:51,159 +the code base um it generates a PR for + +817 +00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:53,079 +you and then it's run through the unit + +818 +00:34:51,159 --> 00:34:55,919 +tests to see if it passes all the unit + +819 +00:34:53,079 --> 00:34:57,160 +test post PRS so it's very similar to + +820 +00:34:55,919 --> 00:34:59,240 +you know what you would be doing in a + +821 +00:34:57,160 --> 00:35:01,280 +well Main software project you open a + +822 +00:34:59,240 --> 00:35:05,240 +issue and then you open a poll request + +823 +00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:07,800 +to fix an issue um this requires things + +824 +00:35:05,240 --> 00:35:10,240 +like long context understanding um being + +825 +00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:13,200 +able to do very precise implementations + +826 +00:35:10,240 --> 00:35:14,720 +based on large software projects and + +827 +00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:17,920 +right now the state-of-the-art on this + +828 +00:35:14,720 --> 00:35:20,680 +is at about 14% so it's definitely not a + +829 +00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:23,119 +solv problem at all um in the original + +830 +00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:27,920 +paper uh the the state-of-the-art method + +831 +00:35:23,119 --> 00:35:29,400 +was like 6% or something like that so um + +832 +00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:32,079 +I imagine that we're not going to get up + +833 +00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:33,880 +to 90% anytime soon because it's + +834 +00:35:32,079 --> 00:35:35,720 +probably solving the easier ones and the + +835 +00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:37,280 +harder ones are you know far beyond the + +836 +00:35:35,720 --> 00:35:39,920 +ability of any language model we have at + +837 +00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:42,320 +the moment um but I I really like this + +838 +00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:43,960 +Benchmark one caveat if you really like + +839 +00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:45,520 +this Benchmark is that it's kind of + +840 +00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:47,760 +heavy to run so you need to be a little + +841 +00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:51,000 +bit careful uh because you need to pull + +842 +00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:54,280 +in like full repositories to um to run + +843 +00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:56,319 +on so yeah be a little + +844 +00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:57,920 +bit sorry there's so many like + +845 +00:35:56,319 --> 00:35:59,640 +interesting data sets recently in this + +846 +00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:01,079 +area that I I spent a lot of time on + +847 +00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:04,240 +data set so I'll try to go a little bit + +848 +00:36:01,079 --> 00:36:06,200 +more quickly but um uh a final one is + +849 +00:36:04,240 --> 00:36:09,359 +design to code and this is also a very + +850 +00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:11,520 +recent data set um basically the idea is + +851 +00:36:09,359 --> 00:36:16,359 +code generation from websites so your + +852 +00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:18,119 +input is a website and your output is uh + +853 +00:36:16,359 --> 00:36:22,520 +like JavaScript code that implements + +854 +00:36:18,119 --> 00:36:24,960 +that website and or or css or HTML code + +855 +00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:26,880 +that implements the website so I I + +856 +00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:30,119 +really like this because you know it's a + +857 +00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:32,280 +good test bed for multi modal models and + +858 +00:36:30,119 --> 00:36:34,040 +there aren't a whole lot of strong open + +859 +00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:36,160 +source multimodal models that can solve + +860 +00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:36,960 +this at the moment so I think it's kind + +861 +00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:39,720 +of + +862 +00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:41,480 +cool um they also proposed a design to + +863 +00:36:39,720 --> 00:36:43,480 +code model that does the best on this + +864 +00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:47,119 +data set out of uh you know any of the + +865 +00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:47,119 +open source models but it's still far + +866 +00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:53,040 +from and then the question becomes how + +867 +00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:56,079 +do they um evaluate this in the first + +868 +00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:59,440 +place and basically the idea is that + +869 +00:36:56,079 --> 00:37:01,400 +they do highle visual similarity and so + +870 +00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:03,920 +they calculate visual embeddings of the + +871 +00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:06,119 +generated sites and then they also do + +872 +00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:08,240 +lowl element similarity so they try to + +873 +00:37:06,119 --> 00:37:10,440 +identify all of the elements in the + +874 +00:37:08,240 --> 00:37:12,119 +generated web page and make sure that uh + +875 +00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:15,720 +they recall all of the generated + +876 +00:37:12,119 --> 00:37:18,760 +elements so um I think this is nice one + +877 +00:37:15,720 --> 00:37:21,000 +thing if you notice um if you use even + +878 +00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:25,960 +state-ofthe-art like closed models like + +879 +00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:28,040 +CLA 3 or um GPD 4 is they're really bad + +880 +00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:29,440 +at this recall they it can generate + +881 +00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:31,800 +something that looks like maybe a little + +882 +00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:33,839 +bit similar but it will be missing like + +883 +00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:35,720 +the elements the design will be off you + +884 +00:37:33,839 --> 00:37:37,720 +know other stuff like that so I think + +885 +00:37:35,720 --> 00:37:41,079 +even in the closed like strong models + +886 +00:37:37,720 --> 00:37:41,079 +this is not a Sol + +887 +00:37:41,319 --> 00:37:47,079 +problem cool uh + +888 +00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:49,880 +yeah + +889 +00:37:47,079 --> 00:37:51,880 +problem um so why is that a hard problem + +890 +00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:54,200 +for the models I don't actually have a + +891 +00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:57,200 +really confident answer to that but I + +892 +00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:57,200 +think + +893 +00:38:00,240 --> 00:38:05,200 +so one thing I can tell you is that they + +894 +00:38:02,839 --> 00:38:08,839 +are able to + +895 +00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:12,000 +improve um so they're able to generate + +896 +00:38:08,839 --> 00:38:14,720 +something and then I say no that's bad + +897 +00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:16,160 +please like make it better and it's + +898 +00:38:14,720 --> 00:38:17,800 +generally better the second time + +899 +00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:19,920 +especially if you give specific things + +900 +00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:22,319 +like oh uh but the background on the + +901 +00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:25,160 +generated site is white but actually it + +902 +00:38:22,319 --> 00:38:27,599 +should be black and if you think about + +903 +00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:31,480 +like even a skilled human programmer do + +904 +00:38:27,599 --> 00:38:35,119 +you think you could write like website + +905 +00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:37,680 +code and then view it once and then it + +906 +00:38:35,119 --> 00:38:40,319 +would be correct I think you probably + +907 +00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:42,160 +couldn't right and so like we're asking + +908 +00:38:40,319 --> 00:38:44,040 +models to do essentially the same thing + +909 +00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:46,920 +except they're like even worse than us + +910 +00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:48,560 +and you know keeping track of all the V + +911 +00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:50,720 +visual elements and stuff so I think + +912 +00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:52,480 +it's more like this problem probably + +913 +00:38:50,720 --> 00:38:54,720 +just needs iterative refinement + +914 +00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:58,839 +otherwise it's like asking too much of a + +915 +00:38:54,720 --> 00:39:02,640 +model maybe I don't know + +916 +00:38:58,839 --> 00:39:04,520 +cool okay so um let's go into methods + +917 +00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:06,920 +and code generation has some unique + +918 +00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:09,400 +things um the basic method that you can + +919 +00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:11,240 +always use is a code generating LM and + +920 +00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:13,040 +so you feed in previous code or you feed + +921 +00:39:11,240 --> 00:39:16,040 +in whatever context you have into the LM + +922 +00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:18,079 +and you generate um uh from it and + +923 +00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:20,079 +virtually all Serius LMS are trained on + +924 +00:39:18,079 --> 00:39:23,079 +code nowadays like I I just mentioned + +925 +00:39:20,079 --> 00:39:23,079 +before + +926 +00:39:23,119 --> 00:39:29,920 +um one one important thing here is uh + +927 +00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:31,240 +when you're generating if you're + +928 +00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:33,040 +generating for something like code + +929 +00:39:31,240 --> 00:39:34,480 +generation I definitely suggest that you + +930 +00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:36,119 +modify your temperature settings + +931 +00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:38,359 +appropriately and set it to a low + +932 +00:39:36,119 --> 00:39:42,160 +temperature um otherwise you'll get kind + +933 +00:39:38,359 --> 00:39:45,079 +of crazy uh code but if you set it to a + +934 +00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:45,079 +low temperature you can get + +935 +00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:52,160 +better anyway um one really core + +936 +00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:54,240 +capability of code LMS especially ones + +937 +00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:55,599 +that you use in your IDE like uh + +938 +00:39:54,240 --> 00:39:58,160 +co-pilot is + +939 +00:39:55,599 --> 00:40:00,000 +infilling and um + +940 +00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:03,680 +the the paper that proposed this is + +941 +00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:05,920 +actually by Daniel Freed at LTI here and + +942 +00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:09,160 +um + +943 +00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:11,240 +the basically what you want to do often + +944 +00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:13,000 +is you have previous code you have next + +945 +00:40:11,240 --> 00:40:14,680 +code and you want to just fill in like a + +946 +00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:17,960 +line that's missing like you want to add + +947 +00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:19,040 +an extra you know if statement or or + +948 +00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:22,720 +some sort of + +949 +00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:24,880 +modification and so the way that at + +950 +00:40:22,720 --> 00:40:27,000 +least this paper proposed it and the way + +951 +00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:29,800 +that I think most LMS are actually doing + +952 +00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:30,640 +this is they take a standard left to + +953 +00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:33,200 +right + +954 +00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:36,040 +LM and what they want to do is they want + +955 +00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:39,040 +to infill this code chunk and so what + +956 +00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:40,440 +they do is they put a mask in the place + +957 +00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:42,119 +where they want to fill the chunk which + +958 +00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:46,280 +would also be where your cursor is in + +959 +00:40:42,119 --> 00:40:49,960 +your IDE right uh at that point and then + +960 +00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:52,680 +they have Mas to zero and then at the + +961 +00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:57,400 +end they put mask to zero again and then + +962 +00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:59,000 +they output the like you know all of the + +963 +00:40:57,400 --> 00:41:01,040 +code that you want to generate there and + +964 +00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:02,839 +so you can just kind of arbitrarily + +965 +00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:05,480 +generate these trunks by pulling you + +966 +00:41:02,839 --> 00:41:07,000 +know masking out chunks uh putting in + +967 +00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:08,960 +The Mask token and then moving it to the + +968 +00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:10,440 +end of the sequence and then you can + +969 +00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:13,160 +just use a standard left to right Auto + +970 +00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:15,359 +regressive language model to solve this + +971 +00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:17,040 +problem so this is really important if + +972 +00:41:15,359 --> 00:41:18,520 +you want to build like a co-pilot style + +973 +00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:20,160 +thing and all of the code language + +974 +00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:23,680 +models that I talk about at the end of + +975 +00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:23,680 +this class uh use this + +976 +00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:30,440 +technique um another thing is there's + +977 +00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:33,760 +lots of available information uh for + +978 +00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:36,040 +learning coding things um or for solving + +979 +00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:38,880 +coding tasks this includes you know the + +980 +00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:40,440 +current code context of course um also + +981 +00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:41,920 +the description of the issue that you + +982 +00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:45,160 +want to be fixing like if you're solving + +983 +00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:49,240 +a poll request um repo context from + +984 +00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:51,880 +other files um what tabs you have open + +985 +00:41:49,240 --> 00:41:55,920 +uh so that that's also an important + +986 +00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:58,599 +thing and when GitHub co-pilot came out + +987 +00:41:55,920 --> 00:42:01,960 +they didn't really tell you the details + +988 +00:41:58,599 --> 00:42:04,480 +of how they were doing this but um + +989 +00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:09,079 +GitHub co-pilot is written in JavaScript + +990 +00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:11,839 +and uh there was a p PhD student I think + +991 +00:42:09,079 --> 00:42:14,000 +from maybe Georgia Tech or something uh + +992 +00:42:11,839 --> 00:42:16,839 +who or Master student who basically went + +993 +00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:19,160 +in and took the JavaScript and like Dem + +994 +00:42:16,839 --> 00:42:21,839 +minified it and like reverse engineered + +995 +00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:23,640 +what was actually happening um and uh + +996 +00:42:21,839 --> 00:42:26,680 +wrote A Blog about it and this blog is + +997 +00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:28,800 +is great uh so basically what uh + +998 +00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:32,200 +co-pilot was doing which also kind of + +999 +00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:33,839 +gives you a gold standard um way of uh + +1000 +00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:36,920 +looking + +1001 +00:42:33,839 --> 00:42:39,440 +at uh you know what kind of information + +1002 +00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:43,440 +is necessary to create a good model is + +1003 +00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:45,240 +first they extract um information for + +1004 +00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:47,400 +the prompt given the current document + +1005 +00:42:45,240 --> 00:42:49,240 +and the cursor position so they take the + +1006 +00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:51,720 +current document where is the cursor and + +1007 +00:42:49,240 --> 00:42:54,640 +what is before this and what is after + +1008 +00:42:51,720 --> 00:42:56,960 +this um they identify the relative path + +1009 +00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:59,960 +of the file and what language it's in so + +1010 +00:42:56,960 --> 00:43:01,760 +they they identifi python files or + +1011 +00:42:59,960 --> 00:43:04,240 +JavaScript files or + +1012 +00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:07,440 +whatever they find the most recently + +1013 +00:43:04,240 --> 00:43:09,800 +accessed 20 files in the same language + +1014 +00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:12,599 +so like if you've opened 20 tabs they + +1015 +00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:15,559 +keep track of which tab you had + +1016 +00:43:12,599 --> 00:43:18,280 +open um and then the actual prompt that + +1017 +00:43:15,559 --> 00:43:22,119 +they send over includes text that is + +1018 +00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:23,640 +before text that's after um similar + +1019 +00:43:22,119 --> 00:43:26,520 +files out of the 20 files that you've + +1020 +00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:29,480 +opened recently um also information from + +1021 +00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:31,760 +imported files and metadata about the + +1022 +00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:33,079 +language and the path so all of this is + +1023 +00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:37,079 +sent to the + +1024 +00:43:33,079 --> 00:43:38,720 +model um and so this is just basically + +1025 +00:43:37,079 --> 00:43:40,160 +it's really good prompt engineering + +1026 +00:43:38,720 --> 00:43:41,760 +right they're figuring out a good way to + +1027 +00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:44,200 +get all of the information that would be + +1028 +00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:45,680 +useful uh for getting this model to work + +1029 +00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:49,559 +into the + +1030 +00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:50,920 +prompt um so I there's much much more + +1031 +00:43:49,559 --> 00:43:52,839 +information in this plug it's a really + +1032 +00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:57,400 +nice blog if you uh if you want to see + +1033 +00:43:52,839 --> 00:43:57,400 +about it but um that's the basic + +1034 +00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:00,240 +any any + +1035 +00:44:01,240 --> 00:44:07,160 +questions okay + +1036 +00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:11,240 +cool yeah is this just what gets sent + +1037 +00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:13,520 +over to theot server or does + +1038 +00:44:11,240 --> 00:44:15,240 +copilot this is what gets sent over to + +1039 +00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:17,920 +the co-pilot server but the way they're + +1040 +00:44:15,240 --> 00:44:20,960 +sending it makes me guess that like all + +1041 +00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:22,839 +of this is red so like they also are + +1042 +00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:24,559 +considering I didn't mention it here but + +1043 +00:44:22,839 --> 00:44:26,000 +they're considering the token limit and + +1044 +00:44:24,559 --> 00:44:27,599 +other stuff like that so that kind of + +1045 +00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:30,760 +makes me feel like this is + +1046 +00:44:27,599 --> 00:44:30,760 +actually the + +1047 +00:44:32,240 --> 00:44:38,440 +pr uh cool + +1048 +00:44:35,359 --> 00:44:41,040 +so another uh thing that you can do is + +1049 +00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:42,520 +retrieval based code generation and + +1050 +00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:45,640 +retrieval based code + +1051 +00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:47,599 +generation uh basically what it does is + +1052 +00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:50,920 +it's like rag for code + +1053 +00:44:47,599 --> 00:44:53,240 +Generation Um and this has been around + +1054 +00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:55,640 +for a while including our work that I + +1055 +00:44:53,240 --> 00:44:57,680 +cited here and a few more in in + +1056 +00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:59,960 +2018 um + +1057 +00:44:57,680 --> 00:45:03,000 +and so one way you can do this is you + +1058 +00:44:59,960 --> 00:45:07,160 +can retrieve similar code from online + +1059 +00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:09,720 +and then use it to basically prompt a + +1060 +00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:11,920 +retrieval augmented language model uh + +1061 +00:45:09,720 --> 00:45:14,480 +this is good if you have a model that's + +1062 +00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:16,920 +not super good at code in the first + +1063 +00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:19,920 +place or you know it's making mistakes + +1064 +00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:21,680 +it's also good if you have a large code + +1065 +00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:23,040 +base like that's inter internal and you + +1066 +00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:24,200 +know the language model was not trained + +1067 +00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:26,359 +on it but you still want to use that + +1068 +00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:27,559 +code base for code generation so it's + +1069 +00:45:26,359 --> 00:45:29,599 +really good if you're working at like a + +1070 +00:45:27,559 --> 00:45:32,160 +big company for example that has a very + +1071 +00:45:29,599 --> 00:45:33,319 +constant coding style but hasn't trained + +1072 +00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:37,160 +its own + +1073 +00:45:33,319 --> 00:45:39,720 +LM um also particularly in code there's + +1074 +00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:43,559 +also documentation uh which can be + +1075 +00:45:39,720 --> 00:45:46,920 +retrieved and so we have new libraries + +1076 +00:45:43,559 --> 00:45:51,359 +all the time right and one frustrating + +1077 +00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:53,119 +thing when using like uh chat jpt or CLA + +1078 +00:45:51,359 --> 00:45:57,400 +or something like that when you're + +1079 +00:45:53,119 --> 00:45:59,559 +writing programs is that it can use old + +1080 +00:45:57,400 --> 00:46:03,480 +versions of libraries that are no longer + +1081 +00:45:59,559 --> 00:46:05,359 +compatible and so um in this paper uh + +1082 +00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:08,359 +which this is one of our papers too we + +1083 +00:46:05,359 --> 00:46:10,079 +called it DOC prompting um basically the + +1084 +00:46:08,359 --> 00:46:13,720 +idea is that + +1085 +00:46:10,079 --> 00:46:17,440 +you have your natural language input and + +1086 +00:46:13,720 --> 00:46:20,119 +then you look up uh similar thing + +1087 +00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:23,240 +similar documentation so you find like + +1088 +00:46:20,119 --> 00:46:25,319 +pigment is a general syntax highlighter + +1089 +00:46:23,240 --> 00:46:28,160 +uh so you can uh find syntax + +1090 +00:46:25,319 --> 00:46:31,160 +highlighting um you can also look up the + +1091 +00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:32,640 +lexer you can look up the HTML formatter + +1092 +00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:35,119 +and then all of the things that have + +1093 +00:46:32,640 --> 00:46:37,000 +similar documentation then you can uh + +1094 +00:46:35,119 --> 00:46:39,480 +append that to the prompt and then have + +1095 +00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:41,680 +that Genera output and we demonstrate + +1096 +00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:43,200 +that this is good both in general but + +1097 +00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:44,800 +also it's particularly good when you're + +1098 +00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:46,240 +dealing with new libraries that haven't + +1099 +00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:48,280 +been seen before or libraries that have + +1100 +00:46:46,240 --> 00:46:50,119 +been updated so this is another thing + +1101 +00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:53,000 +that you can + +1102 +00:46:50,119 --> 00:46:55,720 +do + +1103 +00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:57,520 +cool um another thing that you can do + +1104 +00:46:55,720 --> 00:47:00,040 +with code that you can't do easily with + +1105 +00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:04,040 +natural language is execution + +1106 +00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:06,119 +feedback and so this is a a paper where + +1107 +00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:09,359 +basically they do something that's + +1108 +00:47:06,119 --> 00:47:10,319 +rather simple but they generate multiple + +1109 +00:47:09,359 --> 00:47:13,359 +types of + +1110 +00:47:10,319 --> 00:47:14,559 +code or multiple instances of code so + +1111 +00:47:13,359 --> 00:47:16,880 +they basically sample different + +1112 +00:47:14,559 --> 00:47:19,960 +varieties of code and I was talking + +1113 +00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:22,720 +about like casset K right uh before + +1114 +00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:25,000 +casset K is good if you have some way to + +1115 +00:47:22,720 --> 00:47:26,520 +confirm which output is correct like you + +1116 +00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:28,040 +already have unit tests and you can run + +1117 +00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:29,440 +the unit test and identify which one + +1118 +00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:31,839 +passes the unit test or you can have a + +1119 +00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:34,160 +human check it but in the case when you + +1120 +00:47:31,839 --> 00:47:35,640 +can't do that what can you do and + +1121 +00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:38,079 +basically what you can do is you can + +1122 +00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:40,800 +execute all of the code Snippets that + +1123 +00:47:38,079 --> 00:47:43,839 +the model generated and check if the + +1124 +00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:48,520 +outputs overlap with each other and if + +1125 +00:47:43,839 --> 00:47:50,680 +you have um you know 30 programs that + +1126 +00:47:48,520 --> 00:47:53,680 +all generate very similar outputs then + +1127 +00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:55,079 +those outputs you know then that program + +1128 +00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:56,520 +is probably correct and then you can + +1129 +00:47:55,079 --> 00:48:00,000 +just pick one of them according to some + +1130 +00:47:56,520 --> 00:48:02,160 +criteria Ian specifically in this case + +1131 +00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:03,960 +they picked the program that has the + +1132 +00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:05,599 +lowest base risk like when we talked + +1133 +00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:09,040 +about minimum base risk and the decoding + +1134 +00:48:05,599 --> 00:48:10,839 +much so um they they basically execute a + +1135 +00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:12,800 +lot and then calculate the base risk of + +1136 +00:48:10,839 --> 00:48:17,000 +that + +1137 +00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:17,000 +that cool um + +1138 +00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:24,440 +yeah yeah and so like self consistency + +1139 +00:48:21,599 --> 00:48:26,079 +is a variety of Base risk um and they're + +1140 +00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:27,640 +using base risk here because outputs + +1141 +00:48:26,079 --> 00:48:30,720 +might not be exact the same but being + +1142 +00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:30,720 +closer is probably better + +1143 +00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:39,040 +than + +1144 +00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:40,559 +comp comparison of the code yeah that's + +1145 +00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:42,880 +a good question especially if you use + +1146 +00:48:40,559 --> 00:48:44,319 +something good like uh code BT score to + +1147 +00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:46,280 +do that comparison you might not even + +1148 +00:48:44,319 --> 00:48:50,280 +need to that's + +1149 +00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:50,280 +that I don't think they did that in + +1150 +00:48:50,559 --> 00:48:57,240 +this cool um another interesting thing + +1151 +00:48:54,920 --> 00:48:59,760 +um is there's + +1152 +00:48:57,240 --> 00:49:04,119 +several lines of work on fixing based on + +1153 +00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:06,720 +eror messages so the basic idea is you + +1154 +00:49:04,119 --> 00:49:08,160 +generate code you try to run it you get + +1155 +00:49:06,720 --> 00:49:13,280 +an airor message from it and then you + +1156 +00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:16,200 +feed that back to the llm um in order to + +1157 +00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:17,520 +you know correct the error and like llms + +1158 +00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:19,119 +if you give them an err and you give + +1159 +00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:20,839 +them buggy code they do have some + +1160 +00:49:19,119 --> 00:49:24,599 +capacity to do that especially as you + +1161 +00:49:20,839 --> 00:49:28,839 +get to theer llm so uh this is kind of a + +1162 +00:49:24,599 --> 00:49:31,200 +a nice uh paradigm this paper intercode + +1163 +00:49:28,839 --> 00:49:33,880 +actually generalizes this a bit and it's + +1164 +00:49:31,200 --> 00:49:38,359 +more recent that's why I cited it here + +1165 +00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:40,000 +and uh so this also um like says you can + +1166 +00:49:38,359 --> 00:49:42,640 +do single turn code generation you can + +1167 +00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:44,960 +also say oh could you please try again + +1168 +00:49:42,640 --> 00:49:46,400 +um you can also uh do planning and + +1169 +00:49:44,960 --> 00:49:48,160 +solving and other stuff like that so + +1170 +00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:49,960 +this is a good kind of like environment + +1171 +00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:52,079 +if you're interested in making these + +1172 +00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:56,720 +more like interactive coding assistance + +1173 +00:49:52,079 --> 00:49:56,720 +for example so you could take a look bre + +1174 +00:49:58,359 --> 00:50:03,359 +cool + +1175 +00:50:00,119 --> 00:50:07,119 +um another important topic is code + +1176 +00:50:03,359 --> 00:50:08,880 +synthesis from input output examples so + +1177 +00:50:07,119 --> 00:50:12,319 +actually when you said code generation + +1178 +00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:14,760 +or code synthesis like five years ago or + +1179 +00:50:12,319 --> 00:50:17,440 +10 years ago a lot of people would think + +1180 +00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:19,440 +about this uh so this is actually this + +1181 +00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:22,440 +has been around a lot longer than code + +1182 +00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:24,160 +synthesis um than serious inquiries into + +1183 +00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:27,680 +code synthesis from natural + +1184 +00:50:24,160 --> 00:50:30,680 +language um + +1185 +00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:33,839 +so basically the way this works is it + +1186 +00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:35,319 +can have no natural language whatsoever + +1187 +00:50:33,839 --> 00:50:39,119 +um but you still can try to guess the + +1188 +00:50:35,319 --> 00:50:42,000 +input from uh input output examples when + +1189 +00:50:39,119 --> 00:50:44,319 +would you want to do this so one example + +1190 +00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:45,839 +of this is something called flashfill + +1191 +00:50:44,319 --> 00:50:48,599 +which has been around for a very long + +1192 +00:50:45,839 --> 00:50:51,839 +time in Microsoft Excel and basically + +1193 +00:50:48,599 --> 00:50:55,400 +the way it works is you have one column + +1194 +00:50:51,839 --> 00:50:58,640 +and um the column might be + +1195 +00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:58,640 +like uh + +1196 +00:50:59,559 --> 00:51:02,880 +R new + +1197 +00:51:03,040 --> 00:51:12,799 +big and uh + +1198 +00:51:06,559 --> 00:51:12,799 +else just pick on three because he also + +1199 +00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:19,599 +up and so we have this column and then + +1200 +00:51:17,160 --> 00:51:19,599 +we have like + +1201 +00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:26,760 +gig um and from like one or a couple + +1202 +00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:28,400 +examples basically what it does is it + +1203 +00:51:26,760 --> 00:51:30,319 +tries to induce a program that can + +1204 +00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:33,319 +generate all the other examples properly + +1205 +00:51:30,319 --> 00:51:35,599 +so in this particular case that would be + +1206 +00:51:33,319 --> 00:51:38,440 +um you know like + +1207 +00:51:35,599 --> 00:51:40,480 +split take the first character from the + +1208 +00:51:38,440 --> 00:51:43,280 +first one and all of the last one and + +1209 +00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:45,280 +then concatenate and then M or something + +1210 +00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:48,280 +like that right + +1211 +00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:50,079 +um and so this is useful in some cases + +1212 +00:51:48,280 --> 00:51:51,599 +like you know in Excel when you have + +1213 +00:51:50,079 --> 00:51:53,359 +this long sheet and you want to fill in + +1214 +00:51:51,599 --> 00:51:56,160 +the rest of it and this has actually + +1215 +00:51:53,359 --> 00:51:57,720 +been deployed uh you know in Excel in + +1216 +00:51:56,160 --> 00:52:00,960 +white + +1217 +00:51:57,720 --> 00:52:02,559 +used um if you're interested in this + +1218 +00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:06,040 +topic there's a fair amount of work in + +1219 +00:52:02,559 --> 00:52:08,839 +it um my there's a little bit less work + +1220 +00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:10,240 +now because most people are focusing on + +1221 +00:52:08,839 --> 00:52:12,400 +uh learning programs from natural + +1222 +00:52:10,240 --> 00:52:14,839 +language and other stuff like this but + +1223 +00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:16,480 +uh this slightly older Pap paper called + +1224 +00:52:14,839 --> 00:52:19,359 +interpret explains a bunch of the + +1225 +00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:22,880 +different methods that people used and + +1226 +00:52:19,359 --> 00:52:25,920 +um how you uh like how they compare and + +1227 +00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:28,119 +stuff and also um Joshua ten and bums + +1228 +00:52:25,920 --> 00:52:29,880 +group from MI has done a lot on program + +1229 +00:52:28,119 --> 00:52:31,319 +synthesis from input output examples so + +1230 +00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:32,359 +you could also take a look at that that + +1231 +00:52:31,319 --> 00:52:35,079 +sounds + +1232 +00:52:32,359 --> 00:52:38,240 +interesting um one thing about this is + +1233 +00:52:35,079 --> 00:52:40,280 +these generally are mostly done on + +1234 +00:52:38,240 --> 00:52:43,319 +domain specific languages so they're + +1235 +00:52:40,280 --> 00:52:46,839 +mostly done like only for reg X's or + +1236 +00:52:43,319 --> 00:52:48,480 +they're done only for you know SQL or + +1237 +00:52:46,839 --> 00:52:50,079 +something like that not for the more + +1238 +00:52:48,480 --> 00:52:51,960 +general purpose languages just because + +1239 +00:52:50,079 --> 00:52:54,079 +the problem without any natural language + +1240 +00:52:51,960 --> 00:52:56,520 +specification is harder and so you need + +1241 +00:52:54,079 --> 00:52:57,520 +to like make the search space smaller or + +1242 +00:52:56,520 --> 00:53:01,559 +Additionally you needed to make the + +1243 +00:52:57,520 --> 00:53:04,440 +search small for theable so um that's a + +1244 +00:53:01,559 --> 00:53:04,440 +another thing to know + +1245 +00:53:04,799 --> 00:53:09,440 +about cool um any questions about + +1246 +00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:14,440 +these nice okay so finally in the the + +1247 +00:53:12,559 --> 00:53:15,599 +last few minutes I'd like to talk about + +1248 +00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:18,480 +um code + +1249 +00:53:15,599 --> 00:53:22,880 +LMS and I'm going to go through about + +1250 +00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:24,599 +four of them the first one is codex and + +1251 +00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:26,200 +so yeah actually what I should mention + +1252 +00:53:24,599 --> 00:53:28,079 +is all of the LMS that I talked about up + +1253 +00:53:26,200 --> 00:53:30,640 +until this point are code LMS because + +1254 +00:53:28,079 --> 00:53:31,680 +every LM trains on code so I'm mainly + +1255 +00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:36,119 +going to be talking about one + +1256 +00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:39,200 +specifically for code this time um so + +1257 +00:53:36,119 --> 00:53:42,480 +codex is the first and kind of like + +1258 +00:53:39,200 --> 00:53:45,880 +first really big impact Cod LM um it was + +1259 +00:53:42,480 --> 00:53:47,720 +created by open AI um originally I don't + +1260 +00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:49,079 +know about the deployed model now + +1261 +00:53:47,720 --> 00:53:51,599 +because you know they don't release the + +1262 +00:53:49,079 --> 00:53:53,799 +details of it but originally this was + +1263 +00:53:51,599 --> 00:53:57,920 +trained by continued training from + +1264 +00:53:53,799 --> 00:53:59,799 +gpt3 so they had a text M and then they + +1265 +00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:03,079 +just continued training it on lots and + +1266 +00:53:59,799 --> 00:54:05,680 +lots of code from GitHub um so yeah the + +1267 +00:54:03,079 --> 00:54:08,799 +data was lots of data from GitHub um if + +1268 +00:54:05,680 --> 00:54:11,280 +you did anything on GitHub at any point + +1269 +00:54:08,799 --> 00:54:14,119 +in your life uh you might be uh + +1270 +00:54:11,280 --> 00:54:17,720 +contributing to codep so thank you on + +1271 +00:54:14,119 --> 00:54:22,440 +behalf of open AI a 80 billion dollar + +1272 +00:54:17,720 --> 00:54:24,599 +company and uh importantly it Powers I + +1273 +00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:27,599 +believe it still Powers GitHub + +1274 +00:54:24,599 --> 00:54:31,160 +co-pilot one interesting thing is they + +1275 +00:54:27,599 --> 00:54:33,119 +had a large version of codex um and then + +1276 +00:54:31,160 --> 00:54:35,799 +they had a smaller version of codex + +1277 +00:54:33,119 --> 00:54:38,359 +called code kushman and the thing + +1278 +00:54:35,799 --> 00:54:40,040 +actually powering GitHub co-pilot is not + +1279 +00:54:38,359 --> 00:54:42,839 +the the largest version it's not code Da + +1280 +00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:46,359 +Vinci it's code kushman which is uh + +1281 +00:54:42,839 --> 00:54:48,680 +smaller and much faster and the reason + +1282 +00:54:46,359 --> 00:54:50,640 +why is probably twofold number one um + +1283 +00:54:48,680 --> 00:54:54,160 +you need really fast responses when + +1284 +00:54:50,640 --> 00:54:55,760 +you're you know working on code and + +1285 +00:54:54,160 --> 00:54:57,440 +there's actually in co-pilot there's + +1286 +00:54:55,760 --> 00:55:00,280 +some cach and other stuff like that to + +1287 +00:54:57,440 --> 00:55:01,960 +make your responses very fast as well um + +1288 +00:55:00,280 --> 00:55:03,400 +the second reason is probably it' just + +1289 +00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:05,040 +be too expensive for them to run Da + +1290 +00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:06,760 +Vinci over all the code bases for how + +1291 +00:55:05,040 --> 00:55:10,400 +much they're charging you for co-pilot + +1292 +00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:12,119 +so like every single time you like + +1293 +00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:14,280 +change something in one of your files if + +1294 +00:55:12,119 --> 00:55:17,079 +you're using copilot it's rerunning in + +1295 +00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:19,359 +llm and that would become very expensive + +1296 +00:55:17,079 --> 00:55:20,599 +if you look look at the token count so I + +1297 +00:55:19,359 --> 00:55:21,839 +think they're using a smaller model + +1298 +00:55:20,599 --> 00:55:22,920 +because of that but nonetheless it's + +1299 +00:55:21,839 --> 00:55:27,039 +very + +1300 +00:55:22,920 --> 00:55:28,640 +good um cool + +1301 +00:55:27,039 --> 00:55:30,680 +so now I want to get into some more + +1302 +00:55:28,640 --> 00:55:33,880 +modern models uh the first one I want to + +1303 +00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:35,520 +get into is uh star coder 2 and the + +1304 +00:55:33,880 --> 00:55:38,359 +reason why I want to talk about this + +1305 +00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:40,160 +first is because uh not necessarily that + +1306 +00:55:38,359 --> 00:55:41,880 +it's like absolutely the best one + +1307 +00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:43,400 +although it's very good but it's one of + +1308 +00:55:41,880 --> 00:55:45,319 +the models that actually tells us + +1309 +00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:47,240 +everything about their training data and + +1310 +00:55:45,319 --> 00:55:50,400 +training process and stuff so we know uh + +1311 +00:55:47,240 --> 00:55:53,039 +everything about them so the creator of + +1312 +00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:54,440 +This was um the big science project + +1313 +00:55:53,039 --> 00:55:56,880 +which was led by hugging face and + +1314 +00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:58,680 +service now um + +1315 +00:55:56,880 --> 00:56:02,079 +and includes lots and lots of people + +1316 +00:55:58,680 --> 00:56:04,960 +from various universities and things um + +1317 +00:56:02,079 --> 00:56:09,319 +the architecture is mostly llama style + +1318 +00:56:04,960 --> 00:56:11,960 +it has 3B 7B and 15b variants um one + +1319 +00:56:09,319 --> 00:56:15,480 +interesting thing about all code LMS is + +1320 +00:56:11,960 --> 00:56:17,680 +that they all do long context they all + +1321 +00:56:15,480 --> 00:56:20,359 +do longer context and they all + +1322 +00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:23,200 +reconfigure rope for longer context + +1323 +00:56:20,359 --> 00:56:25,280 +specifically so you know rope has a + +1324 +00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:28,599 +Theta parameter that allows you to tell + +1325 +00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:31,720 +how long the um like sign sine waves and + +1326 +00:56:28,599 --> 00:56:33,720 +stuff like that are and they all always + +1327 +00:56:31,720 --> 00:56:36,079 +um change the parameters so that the + +1328 +00:56:33,720 --> 00:56:38,599 +context is longer so that's another good + +1329 +00:56:36,079 --> 00:56:38,599 +thing to know + +1330 +00:56:38,640 --> 00:56:44,559 +about the the training data section of + +1331 +00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:48,799 +this paper is really fascinating I can + +1332 +00:56:44,559 --> 00:56:51,240 +like it it's a really good way to look + +1333 +00:56:48,799 --> 00:56:54,160 +at you know how much data engineering + +1334 +00:56:51,240 --> 00:56:55,960 +goes into making a good model um and + +1335 +00:56:54,160 --> 00:56:57,960 +just very shortly they give a lot more + +1336 +00:56:55,960 --> 00:57:00,640 +detail in the paper but it's trained on + +1337 +00:56:57,960 --> 00:57:04,839 +code uh including the stack which is + +1338 +00:57:00,640 --> 00:57:06,920 +just a huge uh amount like repository of + +1339 +00:57:04,839 --> 00:57:08,359 +code that I'll talk about in a second + +1340 +00:57:06,920 --> 00:57:10,559 +separately from that it was trained on + +1341 +00:57:08,359 --> 00:57:13,079 +GitHub issues it was trained on poll + +1342 +00:57:10,559 --> 00:57:16,000 +requests Jupiter notebooks keggle + +1343 +00:57:13,079 --> 00:57:18,319 +notebooks documentation and also + +1344 +00:57:16,000 --> 00:57:23,440 +intermediate representations from uh + +1345 +00:57:18,319 --> 00:57:26,440 +llvm so llvm is a uh you know like + +1346 +00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:28,920 +intermediate uh compiler style thing + +1347 +00:57:26,440 --> 00:57:30,839 +that is used for compiling code and it + +1348 +00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:34,400 +was also trained on a few code relevant + +1349 +00:57:30,839 --> 00:57:38,440 +natural language data sets + +1350 +00:57:34,400 --> 00:57:39,960 +um so for pre-processing they do + +1351 +00:57:38,440 --> 00:57:42,640 +something pretty interesting which is + +1352 +00:57:39,960 --> 00:57:44,240 +they add metadata tags such as the repo + +1353 +00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:48,119 +name and the file name and other stuff + +1354 +00:57:44,240 --> 00:57:49,799 +like this uh 50% of the time and they do + +1355 +00:57:48,119 --> 00:57:51,599 +this 50% of the time because they want + +1356 +00:57:49,799 --> 00:57:54,400 +the model to work with them but also be + +1357 +00:57:51,599 --> 00:57:57,079 +robust without them um and so you can + +1358 +00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:59,839 +either add them or not add them at test + +1359 +00:57:57,079 --> 00:58:03,079 +time uh they also do infilling every + +1360 +00:57:59,839 --> 00:58:05,960 +serus code LM does infilling Based + +1361 +00:58:03,079 --> 00:58:07,480 +training um one interesting thing about + +1362 +00:58:05,960 --> 00:58:08,960 +this from the training perspective is + +1363 +00:58:07,480 --> 00:58:12,000 +they actually trained it for four to + +1364 +00:58:08,960 --> 00:58:14,359 +five epochs um which is much more than + +1365 +00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:17,160 +we normally do so normally we only train + +1366 +00:58:14,359 --> 00:58:18,359 +for like one Epoch over you know all of + +1367 +00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:20,079 +the data we have but here they were + +1368 +00:58:18,359 --> 00:58:21,319 +training for monger and that's just + +1369 +00:58:20,079 --> 00:58:23,359 +because the amount of data they can get + +1370 +00:58:21,319 --> 00:58:24,400 +for code is less than the amount of data + +1371 +00:58:23,359 --> 00:58:27,200 +they can get for all the national + +1372 +00:58:24,400 --> 00:58:30,039 +language I + +1373 +00:58:27,200 --> 00:58:33,200 +so the data set that they created is uh + +1374 +00:58:30,039 --> 00:58:36,119 +the stack 2 and this is a code + +1375 +00:58:33,200 --> 00:58:37,839 +pre-training data set um one interesting + +1376 +00:58:36,119 --> 00:58:40,039 +thing that they thought about was uh + +1377 +00:58:37,839 --> 00:58:42,960 +license considerations so I talked about + +1378 +00:58:40,039 --> 00:58:44,480 +the um how copyright is a problem when + +1379 +00:58:42,960 --> 00:58:46,640 +trading large language models two + +1380 +00:58:44,480 --> 00:58:48,880 +classes ago and so here they + +1381 +00:58:46,640 --> 00:58:50,119 +specifically tried to find things with + +1382 +00:58:48,880 --> 00:58:52,520 +permissive + +1383 +00:58:50,119 --> 00:58:53,880 +licenses and so what they did is they + +1384 +00:58:52,520 --> 00:58:57,000 +basically looked at the license on + +1385 +00:58:53,880 --> 00:58:59,520 +GitHub um and if the GitHub license was + +1386 +00:58:57,000 --> 00:59:01,440 +permissive they marked it as permissive + +1387 +00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:02,880 +um then they tried to detect licenses + +1388 +00:59:01,440 --> 00:59:05,720 +and then um if all of them were + +1389 +00:59:02,880 --> 00:59:08,000 +permissive they marked it as + +1390 +00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:10,480 +permissive this is a huge table that + +1391 +00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:14,160 +they have in the paper of all of the + +1392 +00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:15,480 +data that they have and um you know I'm + +1393 +00:59:14,160 --> 00:59:16,920 +not going to go through all of this + +1394 +00:59:15,480 --> 00:59:18,920 +obviously but what you can see is some + +1395 +00:59:16,920 --> 00:59:22,480 +of the biggest data sets are like + +1396 +00:59:18,920 --> 00:59:26,280 +Java um + +1397 +00:59:22,480 --> 00:59:28,640 +PHP markdown + +1398 +00:59:26,280 --> 00:59:30,039 +and uh Python and other stuff like that + +1399 +00:59:28,640 --> 00:59:32,240 +so you can see the major programming + +1400 +00:59:30,039 --> 00:59:35,559 +languages have lots of data but there's + +1401 +00:59:32,240 --> 00:59:38,400 +also a long tail so if you like your uh + +1402 +00:59:35,559 --> 00:59:40,440 +you know more esoteric uh but cool + +1403 +00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:43,960 +programming languages like rust yes it + +1404 +00:59:40,440 --> 00:59:46,160 +has rust too so um we can do all all of + +1405 +00:59:43,960 --> 00:59:46,160 +those + +1406 +00:59:46,480 --> 00:59:53,079 +things so the next model that I'd like + +1407 +00:59:49,799 --> 00:59:55,200 +to talk about is cod llama and cod llama + +1408 +00:59:53,079 --> 00:59:57,920 +is another competitive model it came out + +1409 +00:59:55,200 --> 00:59:59,480 +a little bit before star coder and star + +1410 +00:59:57,920 --> 01:00:02,680 +coder 2 and deep sea coder which I'm + +1411 +00:59:59,480 --> 01:00:04,079 +going to talk about um this is a created + +1412 +01:00:02,680 --> 01:00:08,319 +by + +1413 +01:00:04,079 --> 01:00:11,160 +meta and um the architecture is the same + +1414 +01:00:08,319 --> 01:00:14,280 +as llama 2 uh basically and they did + +1415 +01:00:11,160 --> 01:00:16,400 +continued training from llama 2 um but + +1416 +01:00:14,280 --> 01:00:18,000 +they trained it on longer input contexts + +1417 +01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:21,720 +and they also extended the length of + +1418 +01:00:18,000 --> 01:00:23,559 +rope so uh those are you know standard + +1419 +01:00:21,720 --> 01:00:26,680 +things for code language + +1420 +01:00:23,559 --> 01:00:28,680 +models it was trained on DED code and + +1421 +01:00:26,680 --> 01:00:30,400 +also synthetically created instruction + +1422 +01:00:28,680 --> 01:00:33,280 +data so they created like instruction + +1423 +01:00:30,400 --> 01:00:37,920 +tuning data specifically for + +1424 +01:00:33,280 --> 01:00:39,480 +code um and the training was incremental + +1425 +01:00:37,920 --> 01:00:42,559 +with various data sets and what I mean + +1426 +01:00:39,480 --> 01:00:45,599 +by this is they trained on 500 billion + +1427 +01:00:42,559 --> 01:00:47,599 +uh I believe tokens of code and then + +1428 +01:00:45,599 --> 01:00:50,400 +they did long context fine tuning on 20 + +1429 +01:00:47,599 --> 01:00:52,599 +billion tokens and then they also did + +1430 +01:00:50,400 --> 01:00:55,400 +instruction tuning they also have a + +1431 +01:00:52,599 --> 01:00:57,079 +python specific one and the reason why + +1432 +01:00:55,400 --> 01:00:59,640 +they have a p specific one is not + +1433 +01:00:57,079 --> 01:01:02,319 +because python is more import important + +1434 +01:00:59,640 --> 01:01:03,839 +uh uh necessarily but because a lot of + +1435 +01:01:02,319 --> 01:01:05,559 +the benchmarks are in Python because + +1436 +01:01:03,839 --> 01:01:06,920 +machine learning people like who are + +1437 +01:01:05,559 --> 01:01:09,240 +creating benchmarks they also like + +1438 +01:01:06,920 --> 01:01:11,200 +python so python is more common in the + +1439 +01:01:09,240 --> 01:01:14,240 +benchmarks so they basically wanted to + +1440 +01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:15,720 +do well on the benchmarks I think uh and + +1441 +01:01:14,240 --> 01:01:17,920 +and created a data set that does well in + +1442 +01:01:15,720 --> 01:01:19,240 +the benchmarks but um if you are + +1443 +01:01:17,920 --> 01:01:23,160 +creating python you can use the code + +1444 +01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:25,280 +llama python it's better at pipelines so + +1445 +01:01:23,160 --> 01:01:28,000 +um and then the final one I'd like to + +1446 +01:01:25,280 --> 01:01:29,839 +talk about is is a deep seek coder uh + +1447 +01:01:28,000 --> 01:01:32,079 +this is notable because it's a very + +1448 +01:01:29,839 --> 01:01:34,599 +strong model it it's maybe the strongest + +1449 +01:01:32,079 --> 01:01:38,799 +model on average over all the code + +1450 +01:01:34,599 --> 01:01:41,599 +models um they did 87% the data is not + +1451 +01:01:38,799 --> 01:01:44,640 +super clear but they did 87% source code + +1452 +01:01:41,599 --> 01:01:46,359 +10% English um from markdown in stock + +1453 +01:01:44,640 --> 01:01:51,160 +exchange and 3% Chinese because it's + +1454 +01:01:46,359 --> 01:01:53,559 +from a Chinese company deep seek um and + +1455 +01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:54,960 +they did standard prepr uh but one + +1456 +01:01:53,559 --> 01:01:57,319 +interesting thing they did is they + +1457 +01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:59,200 +included Library dependencies so they + +1458 +01:01:57,319 --> 01:02:01,799 +basically crawled the dependency graph + +1459 +01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:03,640 +of libraries pulled out files from the + +1460 +01:02:01,799 --> 01:02:06,000 +libraries that were referenced and then + +1461 +01:02:03,640 --> 01:02:07,440 +used them in training and so that's + +1462 +01:02:06,000 --> 01:02:09,319 +particularly useful if you want the + +1463 +01:02:07,440 --> 01:02:12,920 +model to be able to reference external + +1464 +01:02:09,319 --> 01:02:14,039 +libraries well um so that's kind of an + +1465 +01:02:12,920 --> 01:02:17,279 +interesting + +1466 +01:02:14,039 --> 01:02:19,599 +thing um the architecture is pretty + +1467 +01:02:17,279 --> 01:02:22,960 +standard it's llama likee with 1.3 + +1468 +01:02:19,599 --> 01:02:24,599 +billion 6.7 billion in 33b variants and + +1469 +01:02:22,960 --> 01:02:27,279 +it has a reconfigured work like the + +1470 +01:02:24,599 --> 01:02:30,520 +others and they on two trillion + +1471 +01:02:27,279 --> 01:02:34,200 +tokens um so then a question becomes + +1472 +01:02:30,520 --> 01:02:36,680 +which one to use um and I created a + +1473 +01:02:34,200 --> 01:02:39,160 +summary here um all of them have + +1474 +01:02:36,680 --> 01:02:40,760 +somewhat similar performance uh this is + +1475 +01:02:39,160 --> 01:02:42,760 +they're compared in the star coder 2 + +1476 +01:02:40,760 --> 01:02:45,640 +paper so you can go in and look at + +1477 +01:02:42,760 --> 01:02:48,160 +details at the starcode to paper um + +1478 +01:02:45,640 --> 01:02:51,119 +deeps coder seems to be strong on + +1479 +01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:52,799 +standard programming tasks um whereas + +1480 +01:02:51,119 --> 01:02:54,799 +star coder seems to be strong on data + +1481 +01:02:52,799 --> 01:02:56,680 +science notebooks so like on average + +1482 +01:02:54,799 --> 01:02:59,160 +it's better at kind of sound notebooks + +1483 +01:02:56,680 --> 01:03:02,079 +but all of them are good models um all + +1484 +01:02:59,160 --> 01:03:05,440 +of them are not quite as good as uh like + +1485 +01:03:02,079 --> 01:03:08,920 +gp4 quad on like they're very uh you + +1486 +01:03:05,440 --> 01:03:10,799 +know more complex tasks but uh they're + +1487 +01:03:08,920 --> 01:03:12,359 +available and you can find to them and + +1488 +01:03:10,799 --> 01:03:16,880 +do other things like that as + +1489 +01:03:12,359 --> 01:03:21,599 +well one caveat about the Deep seek + +1490 +01:03:16,880 --> 01:03:24,640 +thing is actually if I go back to this + +1491 +01:03:21,599 --> 01:03:27,559 +slide um a lot of the models up here are + +1492 +01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:29,640 +deep seek um so you do need to be a + +1493 +01:03:27,559 --> 01:03:31,400 +little bit careful about like + +1494 +01:03:29,640 --> 01:03:34,400 +interpreting their human Evel results + +1495 +01:03:31,400 --> 01:03:36,319 +because it's possible that the model uh + +1496 +01:03:34,400 --> 01:03:38,799 +was trained on data very similar to + +1497 +01:03:36,319 --> 01:03:40,279 +human eval or something like that so do + +1498 +01:03:38,799 --> 01:03:42,880 +take that with a grain of salt but even + +1499 +01:03:40,279 --> 01:03:44,520 +on other data sets where presumably the + +1500 +01:03:42,880 --> 01:03:46,760 +model has not seen those data sets it + +1501 +01:03:44,520 --> 01:03:49,920 +still does very well so it's not like + +1502 +01:03:46,760 --> 01:03:51,480 +it's um you know as you can see it's + +1503 +01:03:49,920 --> 01:03:54,640 +still one of the most competitive code + +1504 +01:03:51,480 --> 01:03:57,680 +models even on this new LCB um data set + +1505 +01:03:54,640 --> 01:04:01,359 +so uh that's want into the + +1506 +01:03:57,680 --> 01:04:03,000 +a cool um that's all I have for today I + +1507 +01:04:01,359 --> 01:04:04,359 +you know I love to talk about this topic + +1508 +01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:06,480 +I've done a lot of research on it so I'm + +1509 +01:04:04,359 --> 01:04:11,200 +happy to discuss any questions if people + +1510 +01:04:06,480 --> 01:04:14,720 +have them either in front of everyone or + +1511 +01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:14,720 +after any any + +1512 +01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:24,160 +questions uh yeah just wondering there a + +1513 +01:04:20,359 --> 01:04:27,720 +like enfor the outut during using things + +1514 +01:04:24,160 --> 01:04:27,720 +other than models + +1515 +01:04:30,599 --> 01:04:36,599 +yeah great question is there a way to + +1516 +01:04:33,640 --> 01:04:38,200 +enforce uh restrictions at decoding time + +1517 +01:04:36,599 --> 01:04:39,760 +other than using the model's uh + +1518 +01:04:38,200 --> 01:04:42,240 +probabilities because this is code and + +1519 +01:04:39,760 --> 01:04:42,240 +we know the + +1520 +01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:51,079 +syntax yes and no um there + +1521 +01:04:46,319 --> 01:04:53,200 +are for code it's not always immediately + +1522 +01:04:51,079 --> 01:04:54,400 +obvious like I mean one one thing you + +1523 +01:04:53,200 --> 01:04:55,960 +could do is just generate a bunch of + +1524 +01:04:54,400 --> 01:04:58,520 +results and throw out all the syntax + +1525 +01:04:55,960 --> 01:04:59,480 +incorrect on that's easy right um but if + +1526 +01:04:58,520 --> 01:05:02,520 +you don't want to do that and you want + +1527 +01:04:59,480 --> 01:05:04,839 +to do it at decoding time it's dependent + +1528 +01:05:02,520 --> 01:05:07,480 +on you being able to have an incremental + +1529 +01:05:04,839 --> 01:05:09,079 +syntax parser that allows you to like + +1530 +01:05:07,480 --> 01:05:12,400 +throw out bad + +1531 +01:05:09,079 --> 01:05:14,160 +hypotheses like incrementally and that's + +1532 +01:05:12,400 --> 01:05:16,240 +possible that's very easy for some + +1533 +01:05:14,160 --> 01:05:17,200 +languages and not possible not as easy + +1534 +01:05:16,240 --> 01:05:20,559 +for other + +1535 +01:05:17,200 --> 01:05:23,720 +languages um one really big thing right + +1536 +01:05:20,559 --> 01:05:26,599 +now is Json so like a lot of the time + +1537 +01:05:23,720 --> 01:05:28,319 +people want to Output Json uh in you + +1538 +01:05:26,599 --> 01:05:31,559 +know then par the Json and use it in + +1539 +01:05:28,319 --> 01:05:36,640 +some Downstream test and there actually + +1540 +01:05:31,559 --> 01:05:36,640 +are libraries um just to give a + +1541 +01:05:38,559 --> 01:05:45,839 +few um here's one this Library called + +1542 +01:05:42,640 --> 01:05:48,799 +outlines um is one that basically allows + +1543 +01:05:45,839 --> 01:05:50,440 +you to incorporate syntactic constraints + +1544 +01:05:48,799 --> 01:05:53,240 +through like weighted finite State + +1545 +01:05:50,440 --> 01:05:55,160 +automata and other stuff like this um to + +1546 +01:05:53,240 --> 01:05:57,680 +allow you to throw away anything that + +1547 +01:05:55,160 --> 01:06:02,039 +doesn't here to your grammar another + +1548 +01:05:57,680 --> 01:06:02,039 +popular one which + +1549 +01:06:02,720 --> 01:06:06,880 +is nice but a little bit more + +1550 +01:06:07,160 --> 01:06:12,760 +complicated is + +1551 +01:06:09,799 --> 01:06:15,160 +um this one uh + +1552 +01:06:12,760 --> 01:06:17,200 +guidance so if you want to look at like + +1553 +01:06:15,160 --> 01:06:19,720 +constrained generation of outputs I + +1554 +01:06:17,200 --> 01:06:21,640 +would definitely recommend uh looking at + +1555 +01:06:19,720 --> 01:06:22,839 +one of these two either outlines or or + +1556 +01:06:21,640 --> 01:06:24,440 +guidance and they both give you + +1557 +01:06:22,839 --> 01:06:26,520 +different ways to add constraints to + +1558 +01:06:24,440 --> 01:06:29,079 +Output um we did actually talk about + +1559 +01:06:26,520 --> 01:06:31,200 +outlines a little bit during the like uh + +1560 +01:06:29,079 --> 01:06:34,599 +generation class but um we didn't go + +1561 +01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:35,760 +into a lot of details so uh yeah but I I + +1562 +01:06:34,599 --> 01:06:39,559 +would recommend + +1563 +01:06:35,760 --> 01:06:39,559 +this cool any other + +1564 +01:06:39,599 --> 01:06:43,920 +questions okay if not uh I guess we can + +1565 +01:06:42,079 --> 01:06:47,880 +finish up and I'm happy to talk we have + +1566 +01:06:43,920 --> 01:06:47,880 +a little bit of extra time \ No newline
