Copilot

So you guys may have heard of GitHub Copilot. It's an AI pair programmer that can suggest code and entire functions in real time. Copilot can also help with comments and documentation by interpreting what your code is doing.

Here’s a random script I wrote in college for a machine learning course. I didn’t document it very well because I was probably rushing trying to submit it by 11:59 PM. But that’s no problem because Copilot can help me figure out what’s going on here.

This script loads the images and labels from the training set and creates a TFRecord file. The TFRecord file contains a serialized example for each image in the training set.

Okay, what is a TFRecord file? A TFRecord file is a serialized version of the dataset.

From this description, it’s starting to come back to me. I can gather that we were attempting to read in some images and labels and serializing them by converting them to TFRecords so that they can be read by TensorFlow while training our machine learning model. Thanks, Copilot.
