ChatGPT performs better on Julia than Python (and R) for Large Language Model (LLM) Code Generation. Why?


Machine learning is all about examples. The more data you have, the better it should perform, right? With the rise of ChatGPT and Large Language Models (LLMs) as a code helping tool, it was thus just an assumption that the most popular languages like Python would likely be the best for LLMs. But because of the increased productivity, I tend to use a lot of Julia, a language with an estimated user-base of around a million programmers. For this reason, people have often asked me how it fairs with ChatGPT, Github Copilot, etc., and so I checked out those pieces and… was stunned. It’s really good. It seemed better than Python actually?

The data is in: Julia does well with ChatGPT

This question was recently put to the test by a researcher named Alessio Buscemi in A Comparative Study … READ MORE
