Devin, who are you?
Is it for real ?

▶ I am the world’s first fully autonomous AI software engineer built by Cognition Labs.
▶ I have been equipped with tools like Shell, code editor and browser in a sandbox environment.
▶ I am capable of working along with other developers or carrying out tasks independently.
▶ I collaborate with teammates and also report the progress.
Some of the tasks showcased by Cognition Labs are :
✔ Devin can build and deploy apps end to end.
✔ Devin can fix bugs on its own
✔ Devin can tune its own AI models
✔ Devin can contribute to repositories.
✅ Devin was evaluated based on a challenging benchmark (SWE-bench), it did outperform other AI models by a greater margin.
Devin cannot be hired yet. It has not been released to the public yet.
Fun fact: All employees of Cognition Labs tagged already themselves as “Human”, like “Human Software Engineer” 😄
