The technology world recently met Devin, who was introduced as the “First Artificial Intelligence Software Engineer”. However, contrary to the claims, it turned out that the truth was not reflected about the Devin’s abilities.
Did artificial intelligence software engineer Devin meet expectations?
The company released a video showing Devin completing freelance work on the Upwork platform and being eligible for payment. However, it is not possible to say that the released promotional video reflects Devin’s true talents.
The YouTuber, who reviewed the promotional video, made a review of the Upwork job announced by Cognition. Making a statement on the subject, the YouTuber underlined that what Devin is said to have achieved is just selling dreams.
The company called Cognition, which received millions of dollars of investment shortly after the introduction video, has not yet announced which LLM model the artificial intelligence software engineer is based on. Some experts estimate that the company could not create an effective and powerful LLM model in a short time, which is why they used GPT-4.
