Ask HN: How can ChatGPT be effectively utilized in the work

There are now many open source projects that support writing a project from scratch, such as: 1. https://github.com/Pythagora-io/gpt-pilot 2. https://github.com/geekan/MetaGPT 3. https://github.com/AntonOsika/gpt-engineer 4. https://github.com/smol-ai/developer How can ChatGPT be effectively utilized for reading library source code, resolving coding issues, and serving as a dedicated coding assistant tailored for a specific repo?

This is just a collection of static ChatGPT prompts and an output aggregator - I really don't see any novel research or real-world applicability of this aside from potentially scaffolding a project. One of the assumptions baked into the coding prompt is that you will never need to use an external library or API [1] which is an inherent requirement in most practical use cases. > ## Code: {filename} Write code with triple quoto, based on the following list and context. > 1. Do your best to implement THIS ONLY ONE FILE. ONLY USE EXISTING API. IF NO API, IMPLEMENT IT. 1. https://github.com/geekan/MetaGPT/blob/main/metagpt/actions/...
In MetaGPT: Meta Programming for Multi-Agent Collaborative Framework
I ran the 'create a snake' game example using the paper's source at https://github.com/geekan/MetaGPT The creation process used 11,940 tokens on input and 2,993 tokens on output, which cost $0.35 and $0.18, respectively. The game it generated consisted of four python classes in four separate files: Main, Game, Snake, and Food. The game executed without error on the first try, but the snake wasn't able to 'eat' the food. Here's the relevant code for 'eating' food: # Check if the snake ate the food if self.snake.body[0] == self.food.position: self.score += 1 self.snake.grow() self.food.generate() The issue was that the snake's body was represented as a list of lists, whereas the food position was stored in a tuple. After changing the food position to a list, the game worked correctly.
In MetaGPT: Meta Programming for Multi-Agent Collaborative Framework
The multi-agent framework MetaGPT has been officially open-sourced: https://github.com/geekan/MetaGPT - Enter a sentence requirement, and it can run a software company, outputting PRD/design documents/tasks/code REPO - It can design a recommendation system similar to the TouTiao app, and it can also design a large model training framework.
