AI Code Refactoring

AI Code Refactoring refers to the systematic modification of software code to enhance its design, readability, and maintainability without altering its external behavior — just with the added ingredient of AI code.

AI Code Review

AI Code Review refers to the use of artificial intelligence technologies to analyze and improve code quality in software development.

Classification

Classification is a machine-learning task that involves assigning a label to an input data point.

Copilot

An AI copilot is a development assistant that can help generate, answer questions about, troubleshoot, and debug code.

Debugging AI

Debugging AI refers to the use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools to enhance the process of identifying and fixing bugs in software code. These tools leverage AI technologies to automate and optimize the debugging process, making it more efficient and less prone to human error.

Embedding

Embedding is a technique that converts discrete data into a continuous vector space.

Large Language Models (LLMs)

Large Language Models (LLMs) are a type of neural network that has been trained on diverse datasets, including vast amounts of text and, increasingly, multimodal data such as images, audio, and video.

Quantized Generative Pre-trained Transformer (qGPT)

qGPT is a quantized version of the Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT) language model.

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) combines retrieval-based and generative-based approaches to generate responses by retrieving relevant information from a large corpus.

Small Language Models

Small language models are a type of AI that can understand and generate human language.

qGPTseeds

qGPTseeds are a set of pre-trained models for the qGPT language model.
