LangChain & GPT-4 for Code Understanding: Twitter Algorithm

Twitter recently open-sourced a part of its recommendation algorithm on March 31, 2023. This article discusses how developers can understand any codebase in seconds using LangChain, Conversational Retriever Chain, Deep Lake, and GPT-4. The new way to understand code repositories involves indexing the codebase, storing embeddings and code in Deep Lake, assembling the retriever, building the conversational chain, and posing questions. This approach is much faster than traditional methods and can be used to comprehend complex algorithms like Twitter's recommendation algorithm.
