I came across this PR with many different systems kicking off AI reviews, comments, and changes. You can also see human devs chiming in. This is the future of how people will work, with more and more of the tasks handled by various AI. Fasc

It seemed to me the author was simply sharing his own lived experience, which happens to be a bit contrarian to the popular hype around LLMs. It may seem courageous for some but I can see a world where the author didn't think twice abo

everybody loves building agents, nobody likes debugging them. agents hit the classic llm app lifecycle problem: at first it feels magical. it nails the first few tasks, doing things you didn’t even think were possible. you get excited, star

Thanks for pointing this out - we didn't consider how important stackoverflow comments could be. Will look into including as a source.

Ah we only put the option for detailed comment on negative feedback (try clicking the x and a form will pop up). Will also give that option for positive feedback in the future.

Thanks for trying it out! We can definitely be clearer on our focus for programming related queries. We usually don't display code snippets for non-programming questions but definitely still tuning a couple things there. We're not

The answer is based on the contents of the websites returned by the search engine + other some sources.

What is the correct/expected answer to that query?

We think the solution is simply having good sources and answer transparency. If you mouse over part of the answer, we try to show you the source of that sentence. Obviously this system is early and will improve over time, but if can easily

You're right - there are so many good sources not often surfaced by a cursory web search like books and experts. Adding better sources is something we're improving on. A simple next step we're looking into is to expand source

Interesting, we are trying to wrangle with the nondeterminism but sometimes it can't be helped as Bing itself can produce different results. Always actively working on the model though. The citing sources feature can definitely be impr

If you can't find the information yourself via a web search, it's going to be difficult for the model to find the answer too... for now ;)

You can leave feedback on individual search results via the check and X buttons below the answer. Leaving feedback e.g votes on each code snippet is on the roadmap.

Exactly, we use some information from traditional search engines as input to our model.

Thanks for trying it out - we're still quite early so the model isn't going to be perfect + we're focused on programming related queries at the moment. What is your use case? Are most of your searches related to history?

The answers are explicitly based on information found on the web instead of some knowledge found within the model parameters.

We're always actively exploring different prompting - a general question answering prompt most definitely won't work for all searches. Finding what people agree on and disagree about in e.g a reddit thread could be very useful.

If you mouseover the answer paragraph, you'll see the relevant url / search result. You can click to go to that source.

Thank you so much for writing this up - this is extremely useful feedback. What you've described here is a use-case we're aware of called "recalling forgotten details," where "the developer knows what she’s doing, b

Thanks for the feedback. I agree that the animations can get old if you're using the search every day. We'll look into simplifying.

Thanks for trying it out! We've gotten some solid feedback about the UI and will be working to improve it. Could you tell us a bit more about what you were trying to do and how it was confusing for complex queries?

We empirically find that most developer searches fall into a few categories consistent with this paper [0]. The author explains these categories nicely in her blog post [1]. It sounds like you're describing 4/6 of these categories
