OpenAI launches new ‘Canvas’ ChatGPT interface tailored to writing and coding projects
OpenAI is currently beta testing its new Canvas feature. (Video above from Developers Digest.) They hope to ‘go beyond simple chat’ in a collaborative environment. While some kinks need to be worked out it could become a powerful new tool
The features for the coding canvas are slightly different. Levine prompted ChatGPT to create an API web server in Python, which spawned in the canvas window. By pressing an “add comments” button, ChatGPT will add in-line documentation to explain the code in plain English. Further, if you highlight a section of code that ChatGPT created, you can ask the chatbot to explain it to you, or ask questions about it. ChatGPT is also getting a new “review code” button, which will suggest specific edits for the code in the window, whether generated or user-written, for them to approve, edit themselves, or decline. If they press approve, ChatGPT will take a stab at fixing the bugs itself.
