The update to ChatGPT's macOS app allows users to interact and code directly with ChatGPT in Xcode and other integrated development environments (IDEs) through the "Collaborate with Apps" feature. This feature enables developers to solve programming problems more efficiently while competing with Apple's built-in Swift Assist and GitHub Copilot.
Users are provided with CMD+Z When ChatGPT is invoked, it automatically detects the currently active editor (e.g., Xcode) and interacts with it based on the context. In addition, developers can talk to ChatGPT during the editing process, enabling operations such as adjusting file colors.
The update also introduces an "auto-apply" mode that allows ChatGPT to directly edit code without additional user authorization, and a video posted on social media by OpenAI team member Alexander Embiricos shows this feature in action, further enhancing the developer's experience. experience for developers.
The update is currently available to ChatGPT Plus, Pro and Team subscribers, with Enterprise, Education and Free users getting support next week, and Windows users will also experience the feature "soon".
OpenAI plans to expand this functionality from IDEs to more Mac applications and gradually roll it out to all Mac desktop users (including free users), with ChatGPT expected to become a more comprehensive system desktop assistant in the future.
In the meantime, the industry is expecting Apple to unveil a smarter Siri AI to help developers with their Xcode projects, but according to the latest reports, a conversationally-capable Siri may not be available until 2027.
