Abstract:
Computer programmers at all expertise levels constantly rely on external support from other developers, existing documents and forums, or AI technologies while programming. However, these support resources are often inefficient: other developers may not be available on-demand to support frequent questions; web forums do not always provide personalized support or quick responses to queries, and AI technologies cannot well understand users' intent or generalize to unseen cases. In this talk, I will share three projects to showcase how we can enable near real-time personalized programming assistance by coordinating and scaling the collective intelligence of developers and machines.
