This is very clever prank! Why don't we train Google Brain to write code that requires less testing... at least avoiding mistakes that humans make :-) I'll probably pass on alpha opportunity, but do count me in for beta!
Kaue, could you spoil Mew's location, please? Kidding!!! BTW, I hope this isn't another prank.. got really excited about it! Great job, anyways! Cheers!
I'll start with of course this was an April fool's joke. Wow.
But for those getting excited at the prospect...
Of course, writing tests takes about 100th of the time of designing application structure and the writing code, doesn't it? The productivity gains would be nothing like as high as the suggestion.
My guess would be that best one could hope for in a tool such as this (when it finally does appear) would be around doubling the output.
Having something write code for you may be fantasy today, but reality soon; the productivity gains are just PURE fantasy.
If this is for real, I'd love to try this else it's a good prank, google!

Awesome. Is this going to be available for Java as well? The example snippet seems to be in Python.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to please consider me for the alpha release
ReplyDeleteThis is the only April Fool's prank that got me this year...
ReplyDeleteI don't bite it! I want to see that!
ReplyDeleteSo my days are numbered as a developer...Never too late to catch my guitar again and hit the road :-)

This sounds great! I'd like to try it.
