🚀🚀🚀 Bito AI – Be a 100x dev and save an hour a day!
🔑🔑 What does Bito AI do?

Bito helps developers dramatically accelerate their impact by bringing GPT-4 and ChatGPT to your IDE and CLI. We use OpenAI’s models, and you don’t have to have an OpenAI key. Bito can save you an hour a day!. Bito AI makes it easy to write code, understand syntax, write test cases, explain code, comment code, check security, and even explain high level concepts.

😊 What does Bito’s AI Assistant help with? Ask any technical question

Generate Code: Examples: “code in java to convert a number from one base to another”, “code to implement a simple REST API in GO”
Command Syntax: “how to set git config variables”, “create an encrypted s3 bucket using the AWS cli”
Test Cases: “Generate test cases for this code < insert code >"
Explain concepts: “explain B+ trees, give an example with code”, “explain banker’s algorithm”
And One click Templates so you don’t have to type anything for:

Explain code: explain code you are unfamiliar with
Comment Method: comments methods and within methods
Improve Performance: easily find performance issues
Check Security: make sure you don’t have security vulnerabilities (漏洞)
This tool is far from perfect. Compile and verify before using! 😊

😊 Bito provides many additional capabilities no other tool provides:

Automatically compare any new code generated by Bito in diff view against your existing code. This allows you to integrate only the lines or sections you want easily.
Ask follow-up questions to refine the output, and the AI assistant considers the chat history for context. This helps you to get more accurate and relevant results.
Get lightning-fast results within seconds, allowing you to access the information you need with minimal delay.
Save your frequently used prompts as custom templates and execute them with ease.
Use Keyboard shortcuts to execute the commands in Bito. Read more about keyboard shortcuts on our “What’s new” page.
Share the results with your colleagues (同事) on Slack (懈怠) , email, or Twitter, making collaboration easier.

FAQ

What is the cost of Bito? Bito is currently in alpha and is free to use.
Does Bito store my code? Security and privacy were foremost on our mind when building Bito.Bito does not store any of your code, we only store metadata including file name, and line numbers.All messages (消息) and metadata are encrypted in transit and encrypted at rest. Contact us at support@bito.ai if you would like to provide your own keys for encryption or discuss other options.
What security measures does Bito employ? Security and privacy were foremost on our mind when building Bito. We do not store or view any of your code ever. All messages (消息) and metadata are encrypted in transit and encrypted at rest. Contact us at support@bito.ai if you would like to provide your own keys for encryption or discuss other options.
What models does Bito use to generate responses? Bito uses a combination of GPT-4 and GPT Turbo 3.5 models. Long, complex prompts are routed to GPT-4 and short prompts to Turbo 3.5 models. This helps Bito balance the quality of output it generates and the cost of servicing users. If you ask Bito about the model in use, most likely, it will say GPT-3, as this simple prompt is routed to Turbo 3.5.

Bito may offer a paid version in the future that always uses GPT-4 or other advanced models. However, our internal testing has shown that the output quality for simple and short prompts is not very different between 3.5 and 4. The full benefit of GPT-4 is realized in complex, long prompts or when prompts are related to niche facts that models are likely to hallucinate. Bito has not seen “hallucination” as a major issue for the development-related use cases that it is targeting.
How to manually re-load in case VS Code does not prompt to re-load IDE after installing BITO extension? Sometimes while installing/re-installing the same version of Bito extension (*.vsix-1.x.x) which was already in use, VS Code may not prompt to re-load the VS Code editor. To manually solve for this do the following:
