The Visual chatGPT Studio is a free extension for Visual Studio that adds chatGPT functionalities directly within the IDE. It allows users to consult the chatGPT in two ways – directly through the text editor or through a new specific tool window. The extension provides a set of new chatGPT commands that can be accessed by selecting a method and right-clicking on the text editor. These commands include asking for complete, creating unit tests, finding bugs, optimizing, explaining, adding comments or summary for C# methods, asking anything, creating custom commands, and replacing selected text. Users can also interact with chatGPT via a tool window and receive answers directly in it. Additionally, the extension provides a new window editor where users can interact directly with chatGPT as if they were in the chatGPT portal itself. This tool window has more features, including the ability to remember the entire conversation, assume a personality that can be parameterized, and exclusively use the model gpt-3.5-turbo.To use this tool, users are required to create and set an OpenAI API Key. However, note that the extension is dependent on the API provided by OpenAI, and there may be changes that affect its operation without prior notice. Also, the speed and availability of responses directly depend on the API provided by OpenAI. If users encounter any bugs or unexpected behavior, they can leave a comment to enable the developers to fix it.
