Introducing the JetBrains AI Assistant
News|by Leanne Bevan|29 December 2023
JetBrains’ new AI tool
JetBrains, a company that specialises in intelligent, productivity-enabling tools to help developers write clean, quality code across .NET, Java, Ruby, Python, PHP, JavaScript, C# and C++ platforms throughout all stages of development, has recently introduced a new feature called **AI Assistant**. This feature is available in the 2023.3 versions of all their commercial IDEs and ReSharper, as well as in Fleet. AI Assistant is a major new feature of the JetBrains IDE family in the 2023.2 release, offering integration of large language models into the IDE development workflow. The AI Assistant plugin is not bundled with the IDEs and needs to be installed separately from JetBrains Marketplace.
The AI Assistant is a context-aware rubber duck that acts as an open-ended chat interface right within the IDE. It can help developers with a wide range of tasks, such as asking what a particular function does, how to complete a task in your language of choice, or how to debug a particular problem. When you ask AI Assistant questions, it considers deep contextual information about your project. Not only are the contents of the current file used as part of the prompt, but also all of the relevant contextual information like the language and dependencies, recently used files, and the relationships between different parts of your project.
