Researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have developed an automated bug repair process called ChatRepair that uses ChatGPT, an OpenAI chatbot, to fix software bugs. The process incorporates information about software test failures and learns from conversational input, as well as successes and failures, along the way. By incorporating incorrect patches with related test failure data, the researchers showed they could refine the prompts fed to ChatRepair as the model worked out code improvements. The researchers believe that the process can be further improved by having a human developer in the loop to add human intuition and understanding of the code base for better combined bug fixing.
