I want to see GPT-4 dealing with this situation:
- they: we need a new basic POST endpoint
- us: cool, what does the api contract look like? URL? Query params? Payload? Response? Status code?
- they: Not sure. Third-party company XXQ will let you know the details. They will be the ones calling this new endpoint. But in essence it should be very simple: just grab whatever they pass and save it in our db
- us: ok, cool. Let me get in contact with them
- ... one week later...
- company XXQ: we got this contract here: <contract_json>
- us: thanks! We'll work on this
- ... 2 days later...
- us: umm, there's something not specified in <contract_json>. What about this part here that says that...
- ... 2 days later...
- company XXQ: ah sure, sorry we missed that part. It's like this...
- ...and so on...
Basically, 99% of the effort is NOT WRITING CODE. It's all about communication with people, and problem solving. If we use GPT-X in our company, it will help us with 1% of our workload. So, I couldn't care less about it.
