Medium GrooveSquid.com (original content) Medium Difficulty Summary
This paper proposes leveraging large language models (LLMs) for improving the efficiency and accuracy of code rewriting, refactoring, and optimization tools. Despite being inherently slow and incorrect, LLMs can be harnessed to enhance the quality of these tools. The study aims to explore this opportunity in optimizing code.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
Code rewriting and optimization are crucial tasks in software development, but current tools often fall short due to their inefficiency or inaccuracy. This paper explores the potential of large language models (LLMs) in improving these tools by leveraging their capabilities for text processing and manipulation.
