The editing tool of ChatGPT got a major upgrade by OpenAI recently. The update introduces a wide range of impressive enhancements. These updates boost the performance of Canvas making it a more powerful tool to compose as well as refine text and code.
In addition to this, macOS desktop users will also enjoy improved visuals and functionality. Integration of OpenAI’s new o1 model into Canavs is a standout improvement.
This advanced model is excellent in problem-solving and reasoning making Canvas a more effective tool that can communicate its thought process effectively.
It can be a thoughtful partner instead os ust a speedy autocorrect, to activate the o1 model in Canvas, users simply need to select it from the model picker. Unfortunately, free users will have to wait, as this feature is right now exclusive to Pro, Plus, and Team subscribers.
Beyond its cognitive enhancements, Canvas also has a visual upgrade and is now capable of rendering React and HTML code. This means the users can witness projects unfold directly within the workspace.
It eliminates the need to speculate on how the code will behave in a browser or rely on separate testing tools. Interestingly, free ChatGPT users can access this feature right away.
Moreover, Mac users who are eager to engage more deeply with ChatGPT will find expanded access to the AI chatbot functionality. The macOS ChatGPT desktop app now fully supports Canvas which allows seamless use of all its features without switching applications. The o1 model’s more thoughtful approach aims to counter the perception that AI often rushes or even tires hard to satisfy. With the new capability to visualize React and HTML code, OpenAI is clearly positioning Canvas as a creative playground for developers, instead of just a simple chat interface. This matches the broader ambition of OpenAI and other AI developers to create more dynamic and engaging tools.
