To get started, install ChatGPT Desktop and add the ChatGPT extension in Visual Studio Code. Next, open a file in VS Code—you’ll see a VS Code icon and the filename above the ChatGPT Desktop chat input. Clicking on the icon lets ChatGPT make changes to your code, offering a similar experience to GitHub Copilot, but powered by ChatGPT. Note that this feature is exclusive to macOS.

I figured this out while trying to understand the benefits of using ChatGPT Desktop on macOS. Since a lot of friends didn’t know about it, I decided to write this quick blog post.
