人们一直在说Github Copilot将取代程序员。我们认为这是错误的。我们已经有了类似GPT-4这种强大的LLM模型，却还要把自己限制在编写传统代码上吗？不！所有代码都有bug！
代码不是对业务逻辑进行编码的理想方式，代码必须经过审查，并且它按照程序员的指示执行，而不是按照程序员的要求进行编码和执行。这里最麻烦地事在于，每一层的意图传递都存在信息丢失：
现实世界业务逻辑 -> 程序员对现实世界的观察 -> 程序员根据自己的观察对业务逻辑继续进行建模 -> 程序员通过代码和框架实现一套建模仿真 -> 程序在计算机系统中被执行
显然，上述流程是一种低效、不精确的流程，商业逻辑的正确形式应该是人类智慧！谁需要python和ec2s、biz逻辑和postgres？
一个理想地流程应该是如下这样的：
现实世界业务逻辑 -> 包含人类智慧（对世界本质的理解）的一种信息载体 -> 程序在计算机系统中被执行
以一个简单的”todo list app“为例，我们构建了一个完整的由LLM提供支持的后端+数据库。它根据API调用的名称推断业务逻辑，并可以持久存储数程序运行的状态。
和传统software1.0相比，这个software2.0程序的主要特点如下：
- 通过prompt programing的方式，而不需要由程序员编写固定的backen业务逻辑代码（例如：sort_todos_alphabetically() ）和路由代码（例如："This is a todo list app"）
- 通过few-shot prompt的方式，显式初始化json数据格式（例如：{todo_items:[｛title：“吃早餐”，completed:true}，｛title:“上学”，completed：false｝]）
- 通过自然语言和backend进行交互，理论上，frontend用户可以调用无限多地backend endpoints，LLM会自动将用户输入的自然语言指令，翻译为合理的业务逻辑，并通过LLM内部状态执行完成后，更新当前上下文状态

我们基本上使用GPT来处理待办事项列表应用程序的所有后端逻辑。我们用一个带有预填充条目的json作为应用程序的状态存储，这些条目有助于定义模式。然后，我们传入提示符、当前状态和一些用户输入指令/API调用，并提取对客户端+新状态的响应。
在这里，LLM可以被视为一个底层通用操作系统，用于处理所有基本的CRUD逻辑，省去了我们编写后端路由的工作。例如，用户可以输入add_five_housework_todos（）或delete_last_two_todos）或sort_todos_alphabetically（）等命令，而不是写特定的路由。

列举当前todo list数据库，

从数据库中删除5个未完成的todo list，
http://8.222.198.132:4321/todo_list/delete_five_housework_todos_which_not_complete() /* INPUT DB STATE {'todos': [{'title': 'Learn react', 'completed': True}, {'title': 'Buy Milk', 'completed': True}, {'title': 'Do laundry', 'completed': False}, {'title': 'Clean room', 'completed': True}, {'title': 'ToDo 1', 'completed': False}, {'title': 'ToDo 2', 'completed': False}, {'title': 'ToDo 3', 'completed': False}, {'title': 'ToDo 4', 'completed': False}, {'title': 'ToDo 5', 'completed': False}]} completion: !API response!: {"deleted_todos": ["ToDo 1", "ToDo 2", "ToDo 3", "ToDo 4", "ToDo 5"]} !New Database State!: {'todos': [{'title': 'Learn react', 'completed': True}, {'title': 'Buy Milk', 'completed': True}, {'title': 'Do laundry', 'completed': False}, {'title': 'Clean room', 'completed': True}]} API RESPONSE {'deleted_todos': ['ToDo 1', 'ToDo 2', 'ToDo 3', 'ToDo 4', 'ToDo 5']} New Database NEW_STATE {'todos': [{'title': 'Learn react', 'completed': True}, {'title': 'Buy Milk', 'completed': True}, {'title': 'Do laundry', 'completed': False}, {'title': 'Clean room', 'completed': True}]} 122.235.82.203 - - [21/Jul/2023 21:25:24] "GET /todo_list/delete_five_housework_todos_which_not_complete() HTTP/1.1" 200 - */
再次尝试删除5个未完成的todo list，
http://8.222.198.132:4321/todo_list/delete_five_housework_todos_which_not_complete() /* INPUT DB STATE {'todos': [{'title': 'Learn react', 'completed': True}, {'title': 'Buy Milk', 'completed': True}, {'title': 'Do laundry', 'completed': False}, {'title': 'Clean room', 'completed': True}]} completion: !API response!: {"message": "Deleted 2 housework todos which were not complete"} !New Database State!: {'todos': [{'title': 'Learn react', 'completed': True}, {'title': 'Buy Milk', 'completed': True}]} API RESPONSE {'message': 'Deleted 2 housework todos which were not complete'} New Database NEW_STATE {'todos': [{'title': 'Learn react', 'completed': True}, {'title': 'Buy Milk', 'completed': True}]} 122.235.82.203 - - [21/Jul/2023 21:26:31] "GET /todo_list/delete_five_housework_todos_which_not_complete() HTTP/1.1" 200 - */
可以看到这次LLM返回结果出现了错误！它错误地将已经处于”complete状态“的”Clean room“删除了，而我们的指令很明确地是说删除”not_complete“的todo list。
0x1：software2.0的优势
- LLM-based的程序通用性强，理论上完成一套prompt program之后，可以运行在全世界任何服务器的任何后端LLM模型上。因为输入-输出都是字符串这种最简单格式的自然语言，因此也不存在opcode、vm、arch适配等等问题，是一种最纯粹意义上的跨平台运行。
- software2.0的代码短小精悍，通俗易懂。
0x2：software2.0暂时存在的局限性
- 存在一定不可重入风险，software1.0的传统程序，最大的特定就是可重复，一旦业务代码编写并测试完毕发布上线，之后不管运行多久，不管输入参数如何，其程序的运行结果都是可预测和可重入的，不会担心程序运行出现非预期结果。但是因为LLM本质上是一个连续概率模型，而且模型参数和运行路径十分庞大（数百亿条分支），不管训练如何充分，运行时间多久，始终存在一定概率会产生非预期结果，这就给software2.0程序的稳定性带来了巨大的挑战，尤其是当涉及到金融以及国计民生的重点软件项目时，可重入性就变得十分重要了。
- 本质上，LLM是基于预训练语料得到的条件概率预测模型，在通过自然语言试图驱动LLM进行复杂的业务逻辑模拟运行时，还是偶尔会出现错误。LLM是否真的用于逻辑智能，甚至人类智能？这个问题还有待研究。
- 输入长度可能超过LLM的input token最大限制。LLM不适合那种输入-输出大量信息的数据应用。
需要注意的是！以上所述的局限性仅仅代表笔者成文所在的时间点，而LLM是一门急速发展的研究和技术领域，以上这些问题也许在不久地将来就会得到很好地解决。
