A first taste of Codex

One of the highlights of my technical life in 2020 was getting access to GPT-3. Thanks to the advice provided by in this video, I was able to get access to GPT-3 and publish a series of videos describing experiments I did with GPT-3 to generate git commands from English, to create a movie trivia chatbot, and to navigate the London Underground and the New York City subway. I was impressed with the variety of problems that GPT-3 could tackle, so when I heard about Codex I was anxious to try it out. Codex focused on one of the capabilities of GPT-3, generating code from English language descriptions. Codex generates code in a variety of languages, including Python and JavaScript.
