You highlight some code and then use natural language instructions (and optional slash commands like `/edit`) to tell the language model what to do. Many developers have begun to use [ChatGPT](https://openai.com/blog/chatgpt) while coding; however, the experience is painful because of how much copying, pasting, and editing is required to provide the context and incorporate the generated answers into your codebase. Continue eliminates this pain by enabling LLMs to natively act in your IDE as you complete your workflows.
