Google Cloud has partnered with Replit, a San Francisco-based start-up and online integrated development environment (IDE), to integrate its AI-based code suggestion tool into Google’s cloud platform. Replit’s Ghostwriter code generator is directly integrated into its browser-based online IDE, which can automatically complete code and respond to natural language queries, similar to a super autocomplete function.
Under the agreement, Google will provide Replit with access to its computing resources and customized AI models, while Google Cloud and Workspace developers will gain access to Replit’s collaborative code editing platform. The partnership is expected to help programmers increase productivity and make it easier to fix errors and collaborate with colleagues.
