"open-source" is the key phrase here -- the author finds that GPT 4 can detect C++ bugs:
"GPT 4: 0 false alarms in 15 good examples. Detects 13 of 13 bugs."
"GPT 4: 0 false alarms in 15 good examples. Detects 13 of 13 bugs."
I've found Vicuna 13B to be quite capable at _generating_ code. But not as good as GPT-4. Model size probably also plays a large role: 13B parameters runs nicely on normal-ish home user hardware, GPT-4 not quite.
