OpenAI continued its marathon of announcements with the full availability of its canvas tool.
A day after OpenAI dropped its AI video generator Sora, the company shared that Canvas is out of beta. Additionally, users can run python code within a canvas document, and canvas is available for custom GPTs.
Canvas was introduced in October as a programming tool for writing and coding. It’s a notebook interface that sits alongside ChatGPT’s user chat, allowing users to edit responses and “interact” with ChatGPT. New to Canvas is the ability to receive feedback and edit in the form of comments. From here, users can make changes based on ChatGPT’s suggestions.

OpenAI also does software development. By copying and pasting the code into ChatGPT, it can see the code and switch to code editor mode to help debug or find any errors. Users can run the code directly within the interface and point out any issues.
Today’s announcement was the fourth day of “12 days of OpenAI” where every business day, an AI company shares something new. So far, we have seen the introduction of the ChatGPT Pro program for $200 per month, strengthening developer maintenance, and Sora.
The release of Sora has been the biggest news so far, sparking excitement and controversy since its launch last February. The AI ​​video generator is able to create photorealistic sequences from simple text commands and has new features for editing AI-generated images. OpenAI claims to have been trained on publicly available data, although critics argue that the data should have been obtained with credit and compensation to the original creators.
Sora’s debut continues to garner a lot of attention online, overshadowing other smaller releases such as the Canvas announcement. What else OpenAI plans to share in the next eight days is unclear. But users are speculating about the preview of the AI ​​agent, o1 with the ability to see, and remain optimistic about GPT-5.
