OpenAI today announced the general availability of Canvas, a feature that promises to improve collaboration with its ChatGPT artificial intelligence agents. Originally just in beta, Canvas intended for users to be able to collaborate on a shared editable surface in co-writing and co-coding present tense with artificial intelligence-produced responses.
This feature has an inline editor, which allows users to highlight parts of a text or code and edit it in the interface via ChatGPT. For those who did not understand, comment on parts of the output given by AI and request specific changes; or give some prompts for further edit.
If a user includes a previously typed text, Canvas will give options like Get Advice or Help Me Write to make suggestions specific to the text and they will not overwrite the original text. Some users want an unchanged input; they can get AI comments and ideas rather than full rewrites so that they don’t lose control of their writing.

Canvas is for programmers as well; it’s for debugging, suggesting improvements, and it functions as a code editor. It even does Pyhton translation and comes with a Run button to execute code directly in the interface. If there are mistakes in the code, they will show up, and the AI will find a solution or fix it when requested.
For writers, it means Canvas combines seamlessly with Custom GPTs, the specialized AI models of OpenAI, to enable very personalized workflows. Now one can create a Custom GPT to be able to make quite an editing to short stories or run Python scripts for doing data analysis.
Canvas is now open for all users of the ChatGPT; hence, it encourages further opportunities for collaborative AI projects.
