ChatGPT’s Mac app will be able to read your code.

The AI chatbot can now “see” what’s on your screen in VS Code, Xcode, Terminal, and iTerm2, allowing ChatGPT to provide suggestions or answer questions about your code without having to copy and paste it into the app using its “Work with Apps” option that’s currently in beta testing.

Though ChatGPT still can’t write code directly within coding platforms, it seems OpenAI is working on that.
