ChatGPT for macOS Gains Direct Code Editing in Development Tools

OpenAI's latest update allows ChatGPT to edit code directly in IDEs like Xcode, with Windows support expected soon.

ChatGPT for macOS now supports direct code editing within integrated development environments (IDEs) such as Xcode, VS Code, and JetBrains tools.
The update introduces an 'auto-apply' feature, enabling ChatGPT to insert and edit code without requiring manual input from developers.
Windows users can expect this functionality to roll out soon, according to OpenAI staff, though no specific timeline has been provided.
The feature is currently available to ChatGPT Plus, Pro, and Team subscribers, with a rollout to free, Enterprise, and Edu users planned for next week.
This development positions ChatGPT as a stronger competitor to tools like GitHub Copilot, while raising ongoing concerns about AI-generated code security and reliability.
