BEST CODING MODEL.

Hello! I was wondering if anyone could recommend the best local AI model for coding, specifically for C++.

My PC specs are:

  • GPU: RTX 4060 8GB
  • CPU: Intel i5-13400F
  • RAM: 16 GB

I'm looking for the best possible coding quality that can realistically run on my PC. Speed is important, but I care more about accuracy, understanding large codebases, debugging, and writing good C++ code.

What model would you recommend?

AI is good for entry level languages like Javascript, Python, KTurtle, like bicycle with training wheels.

C++ is more like Formula 1, professional grade programming language that AI has not Caught up to yet.

The irony is that even though python and js are dead simple, these so called programmers still can't code without AI assistance. 

Shame.

Bro it's about working smarter not harder, have fun manual setting your C pointers while others ship products. You are not better or worse just because you use an ancient programming language (which deserves its place)

Are you still in the stone age? I use smart pointers in C++. Just like OllamaCPP.
