I'm sorry I don't want it to get much smarter.
It you ask it to go through and comment code it does a pretty good job of that.
some things better than others(not that great at CSS)
need a basic definition of something. got it.
tell it to write a function it's not bad.
As a BA just tell it what your trying to do and what questions it should ask users. It will get some good ideas for you.
Want it to be a PM have create a loop asking every 10 minutes if your done yet.
Is it a senior engineer? no. can it pass a senior engineering interview? quite possibly.
debug code hit or miss.
I think the big thing it's not that great at front end code. It can't see so that probably makes sense. a fine-tuned version of clip that interacted with a browser would probably be pretty scary.
What's the point of letting it comment code? The programmer who reads the code can run it as well.
