ChatGPT Yup, that’s right! Anything fresher than that, and ChatGPT’s kinda in the dark. It’s like asking your grandpa about the latest TikTok trends. So, how’s a dev supposed to team up with ChatGPT while also staying up to date with the latest and greatest open-source libraries out there? The good news is that there’s a straightforward way to bridge this gap: ChatGPT’s ! Code Interpreter By harnessing the power of the Code Interpreter and its file upload feature, you can give ChatGPT a crash course on any new library you’re trying to explore. Enable Code Interpreter As of this writing, Code Interpreter is a beta feature that you need to enable via the Beta tab in your settings. Additionally, it is only available to ChatGPT Plus users. Upload Documentation Go to the documentation of that new library you’re curious about. Copy and paste it into a text file, trimming anything extraneous, then use the Code Interpreter feature to upload this file to ChatGPT. You can add a prompt to tell ChatGPT what you want it to do with this file. After you’ve uploaded the file, you can follow along as Code Interpreter performs various actions to analyze the content. Ask Away Once uploaded, you can start asking ChatGPT about the library’s features, functions, and quirks. It will analyze the content and respond with insights as if it’s been aware of this library all along. Code Interpreter’s file upload feature is useful beyond just training on documentation for new libraries. Think of it as a portal to feed ChatGPT bite-sized knowledge boosts on any topic — research papers, industry reports, market analyses… you name it. for more posts on AI, web dev, and more.
