OpenAI’s ChatGPT is a GPT transformer architecture-based chatbot that can imitate humans by accurately answering questions, generate content, translate languages, summarize long texts, and even generate code samples. To address the challenges of existing models that automatically produce code from natural language specifications, researchers from Princeton University have proposed a lightweight and flexible framework called InterCode. InterCode is a reinforcement learning-based method that treats code as actions and execution feedback as observations, and uses independent Docker environments to guarantee safe and repeatable execution. It is compatible with conventional sequence-to-sequence coding techniques and can easily enable the development of new approaches tailored for interactive coding.
