Still the same shit study that does not even name the version they used...? The one posted here 1 or 2 days ago?
In the footnotes they mention GPT-3.5. Their argument for not testing 4 was because it was paid, and so most users would be using 3.5 - which is already factually incorrect now because the new GPT-4o (which they don't even mention) is now free. Finally, they didn't mention GPT-4 Turbo either, which is even better at coding compared to 4.
Anyone can use GPT-4 for free. Co-pilot uses GPT-4 and with a Microsoft account you can do up to 30 queries. I've used it a lot to create Excel VBA code for work and it's pretty good. Much better than GPT-3.5 that's for sure.
