alt Hacker NewsI can't imagine how it wouldn't. None of them can fit a real codebase in context and have to browse the code the same way a person would. Doing searches and reading files. If the files are in the places they would be expected to be and things are called what the model or a person would first guess to search then it gets found in the first attempt rather than requiring a deep search and multiple attempts.
An LLM doesnt have to hold the whole codebase in context. Every path, then shift to next paths because you can ignore sections covered. Much like a developer would.
