Quick hack for y’all (OpenAI, is this intentional or do I get a bounty for finding this loophole?) In the current beta release, it is possible to use the edit endpoint to write code, rather than merely edit it. Well, unless you consider a one line comment that expands into a 200 line python script that does nontrivial tasks to be “editing”.
A related loophole lets you use the regular davinci 2 completions endpoint to generate code completions that appear to be identical to those created using CODEX for the most part… but then you are also paying davinci 2 completions rates which are not cheap.
No CODEX private beta invite needed!
Enjoy. And don’t use it in production because this is gonna go away reaaaaaaal soon IMO
