Don't worry if you feel a sense of déjà vu. After ChatGPT and Mistral, it's Gemini, Google's AI, that has introduced a "Canvas" feature. This collaborative workspace promises to simplify the lives of developers and creatives. This addition could very well become a standard.
The announcement may seem familiar because it is. After witnessing OpenAI's success with integrating "Canvas" into ChatGPT, Google is launching a similar tool for its Gemini AI. This new feature, also called "Canvas", adds to the long list of enhancements made to Google's chatbot since the announcement of Gemini 2.0.
Canvas serves as an interactive space where users can quickly generate a first draft using AI and then gradually refine the text. Users can select specific parts of the document and ask Gemini to adjust the tone, length, or formatting. This system is particularly appealing to web developers by allowing immediate visualization of code outputs.
