Hi HN,<p>I created Biggles last weekend to let me speak out loud to VS Code and have ChatGPT translate my instructions into code changes.<p>For a lot of code I write I am fluent enough that translating my high-level intention into code doesn't break my out of the flow. But if I hit something I'm not immediately sure how to do, I can just open Biggles and start thinking out loud about. With the OpenAI Whisper and GPT4 APIs, it's surprisingly good at inserting the bit of code I want. This lets me stay in the flow at of thinking about what I <i>want</i> to implement, not <i>how</i> I want to implement it.<p>I find that it's easier for me to just start talking, and I don't have to think too much about what I want to say. If I need to translate my instruction into text first, that requires more thought. Maybe that's just me though, and there's a text mode option available. Might be useful in open plan offices!<p>I've not been using Biggles long for any real work, so I'm still iterating on it, but I'd love to know what you think and if you find it useful!<p>The extension is MIT licensed (<a href="https://github.com/jpallen/biggles">https://github.com/jpallen/biggles</a>), but you need to provide your own OpenAI API key at the moment. Keep an eye on costs, because GPT4 is quite expensive! You can switch to GPT3.5 for a cheaper but less good option.
