Using LLMs in Emacs

Author

Marie-Hélène Burle

Large language models (LLMs) have become powerful tools for coding, writing, and research. Not surprisingly, they are increasingly becoming integrated into many software, including text editors.

Emacs is no exception and a number of packages have recently been developed to access models smoothly and directly. Of particular notice:

copilot.el brings GitHub Copilot’s code completion to Emacs,
copilot-chat.el allows to chat, perform code review, code correction, code optimization, code transformation, and code explanation with GitHub Copilot in Emacs,
gptel allows access to any LLM from any buffer,
chatgpt-shell provides an Emacs shell to chat with any LLM.

In this webinar, I will demo these packages and show you how to install them and set things up.

Coming up on September 30th.
