I don't know, I have mixed-bag experiences and it's not really improving. It greatly varies depending on the programming language and the kind of problem which I'm trying to solve.
The tasks where it works great are things I'd expect to be part of dataset (github, blog posts), or they are "classic" LM tasks (understand + copy-paste/patch). The actual intelligence, in my opinion, is still very limited. So while it's true it's not "just recall" it still might be "mostly recall".
BTW: Copy-paste is something which works great in any attention-based model. On the other hand, models like RWKV usually fail and are not suited for this IMHO (but I think they have much better potential for the AGI)
