Scribe AI

Scribe AI is a handy extension for Visual Studio Code that brings the power of ChatGPT right into your coding environment.

With Scribe AI, programmers can tap into AI-driven help while they code, making the process smoother and more efficient. This extension acts like a virtual assistant, helping you tackle everything from deciphering tricky code to sprucing it up and adding helpful comments.

Using the tool is super simple! If you come across a piece of code you'd like to discuss, you can just highlight it and click the plus icon to open up a chat window. This way, you can have a conversation with Scribe AI just like you would with ChatGPT. Plus, all your discussions are saved in your workspace as notes, so you can refer back to them whenever you need.

The latest update brings some cool new features to enhance your coding sessions. For instance, the Ask AI feature lets you type any question related to your code, and the AI will provide you with an answer. If you need to tweak your code, the AI Edit function allows you to specify changes, making your coding tasks easier than ever.

There's also a neat note-taking capability, enabling you to jot down thoughts during your conversations with the AI that won’t be sent to it. You can customize settings to switch between using ChatGPT and GPT, as well as change your API keys for smoother operation. However, it's worth noting that right now, the extension is utilizing Codex instead of ChatGPT’s official API, mainly due to reliability concerns.

In summary, Scribe AI is an incredibly useful tool for programmers who want to automate and elevate their coding experience with the help of AI. Whether you're looking to make sense of difficult code or just speed up your workflow, this extension is a great addition to your coding toolkit.
