Looks great, thanks for the nice Introduction!

[@DevelopersDigest]

Thanks for watching!

[@klaymoon1]

Amazing update!! I'm excited to see what else new improvement OpenAI has in the pipeline!

[@DevelopersDigest]

Me too!

[@jbardet]

Omg this is amazing, I needed this so badly for a current writing project. Gemini in Google Docs was such a disappointment. This is freaking wonderful.

[@Qefx]

Its just a text window? There are dozenz of VS Code extensions which do the same..

[@AlexanderMoen]

oh, nice. Looks like I have it. I'll have to try it out. I just started testing out Cursor though and like how it can handle multiple files and how I can quickly iterate with things. And, I want something like Claude with rendering the code live for you. Hopefully both of those are around the corner shortly

[@suraj_bini]

I got access to the canvas feature when I logged out and logged in again.

[@someshfengade9623]

thanks for the tip I also got access after logging out and logging back in again

[@suraj_bini]

@@someshfengade9623 Cool

[@szood]

Looks great! Thanks for showing this to us :)

[@paulelliotco]

It would be nice if they allowed us to refer to orginal docs while working on code as in cursor.

[@thanhquachable]

i'll switch back if it is integrated into VS code

[@gu9838]

future of ai right there i hope google ai labs does something like that too

[@chesleywayne1939]

I personally found canvas is a great idea, however; It hasn't got a clue when it comes to coding! So I found the only one benefiting from this is the model learning code from your input. Let me explain I gave canvas a working code for a very small uncomplicated project, however; after canvas trying to fix an issue or add a function it got it all wrong! I also tested it's math and found it was far from reliable, even after giving correct results the AI could not get the calculation correct!

[@Nathan-pu9um]

When is it available to public?

[@freiTzer]

In coming weeks

[@DevelopersDigest]

I have talked to one person so far on the plus tier that has access. It’s rolling out right now

[@Nathan-pu9um]

@@DevelopersDigest nice I have it, just checked again and now its there!

[@mateuszuliani7168]

OpenAI said rollout is occurring this week for pro users

[@WaytogoforAI]

Now

[@everythinghotd1]

is there any limit for this like in the claude professional plan?

[@samizdat_eth]

No revision history. Why?

[@jbardet]

In limited testing mine asked if I want to restore a previous version but it may only allow one version ago, not sure.

[@jbardet]

And there is at least an undo button (cough Android still waiting for Google Keyboard to have that natively)

[@Daaaaaaavid]

I can select the model, but the UI does not change 🤔

i experienced this as well. just refresh the page and then ask something about code "generate a login form"

[@257-y8y]

ty

[@DWSP101]

My question is, is it only for the desktop version of GPT I do most of my work from my cell phone

[@sascha_becker]

Now if they just could release the Windows Desktop app...

[@gabrieleferrari2266]

For coding 4o Is not so good

[@ikbendusan]

agreed. i can get working code with a single prompt from o1-preview if i use precise language

[@gabrieleferrari2266]

@@ikbendusan canbas Will be super with o1, this way useless for coding but also for other task. Claude Is Better

[@ikbendusan]

@@gabrieleferrari2266 canvas is mostly to save you time. you can be specific about what it needs to regenerate. there is a use case

[@jaysonp9426]

I'll stick with cursor

[@aidajam3294]

Just talking

[@naranyala_dev]

more programming disruption

[@theSatanist]

And its current state, it's horrible. I feel like I'm talking to a dog. All of my updated memories, PDFs I give it, and other information is basically disregarded and it just is stupid as 3.5! Actually maybe stupider

[@augustuslxiii]

For instance?

[@georgemontgomery1892]

Weird. It uses 4o and its synthetic data was provided by o1 and the performance was notably better than using the current 4o model without Canvas. I call bullshit.

[@theSatanist]

@@georgemontgomery1892 What's even worse is that I was using it to write website content and it was actually doing great... It got up to page 12 and when I did a simple edit on page 3 suddenly pages 5-11 disappeared and there was no way to retrieve them! So take that bullshit you called and make a slurpee out of it and enjoy!
