"AI Learns to Write Computer Code in "Stunning" Advance"


After training, AlphaCode solved about 34% of assigned problems, DeepMind reports this week in Science. . . . To further test its prowess, DeepMind entered AlphaCode into online coding competitions. In contests with at least 5000 participants, the system outperformed 45.7% of programmers. The researchers also compared its programs with those in its training database and found it did not duplicate large sections of code or logic. It generated something new—a creativity that surprised Ellis.
