Apart from generating content from prompts, ChatGPT can also be used for auto-editing, re-writing, and summarising content. But there is no option to see the changes that it has made to the content. To solve this problem, Reddit user shuafeiwang, developed a Chrome extension called editGPT, that turns ChatGPT into ‘Grammarly’.

The extension does not generate content, but allows users to check the changes made by ChatGPT. The tool makes it easier to track and verify the change of content by highlighting content, just like Grammarly, and users can accept or reject specific suggestions.

Once the extension is installed, users can type in a prompt at ChatGPT like “Proofread this:” followed by the text. This will show an editing button on the menu bar. The developer is also experimenting with different types of prompts to enable more flexibility and personalisation in the editing style.

Proofread this but only fix grammar: (10% change)
Proofread this: (20-30% change)
Proofread this, lightly improving clarity and flow: (30-40% change)
Proofread this, improving clarity and flow: (30-50% change)
Proofread this, significantly improving clarity and flow: (40-60% change)
Rewrite this, improving prose:

The extension is available for Microsoft Edge as well, and the developer is working on one for Firefox. You can track further developments of editGPT in this Reddit thread created by the developer.

ChatGPT everywhere

There has been a surge in ChatGPT-based tools. Recently, Sarvesh Kapre developed GPTx, a Chrome extension that enhances the browsing experience by integrating ChatGPT results in the Google search box. The extension gives GPT-powered results combined with Google results.

Another developer and co-founder of Cue, Daniel Gross, integrated GPT-3.5 on WhatsApp as an AI-enabled assistant, and called it WhatsApp-GPT. Stanford students Silas Alberti and Joseph Semrai developed ChatBCG, for creating text-to-slides.
