This browser extension provides AI-powered helper functions within Jupyter Notebooks and Jupyter Lab, leveraging ChatGPT or GPT-4. It targets data scientists and researchers seeking to automate code formatting, explanation, debugging, completion, and review, thereby enhancing productivity and code quality.

How It Works

The extension integrates with the OpenAI API to process code cells and user prompts. It employs prompt engineering to guide ChatGPT in performing specific tasks like generating docstrings, explaining code logic, identifying errors, suggesting completions, and reviewing code. This approach aims to bring the power of large language models directly into the interactive coding environment.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Installation: Chrome/Edge via Chrome Web Store (preferred) or local install by loading the unpacked extension. Firefox via local install by loading a temporary add-on.
• Prerequisites: OpenAI API key. Voice command feature requires OpenAI Whisper API access.
• Links: Chrome Web Store

Highlighted Details

• Offers multiple AI-assisted code operations: Format, Explain, Debug, Complete, Review.
• Supports custom questions and voice commands via microphone.
• Based on the wong2/chat-gpt-google-extension project.
