Wix uses ChatGPT to help you quickly build an entire website
Website creation company Wix has unveiled a new AI-powered feature that lets you use ChatGPT and other tools to build a site simply by describing what you want.

Wix is an oft-recommended online service that lets you knock together a website without any coding knowledge.
Now the Israel-based company has announced a new AI Site Generator that aims to make the process even smoother and more intuitive, and less time-consuming, too.
The update utilizes ChatGPT, the popular generative AI chatbot that burst onto the scene in November and continues to cause a stir.
Through a text-based discussion with the advanced chat tool, Wix will understand precisely the kind of website you’re looking to build and respond accordingly with an original design, text, and images. The AI Site Generator tool can handle multiple pages, too, and also build in e-commerce features already offered by Wix.
The company shared a video (below) showing how the new feature works.
“What makes it groundbreaking is that it is not a template,” Wix CEO Avishai Abrahami said in a blog post on Monday. “In fact, it’s a unique website designed and tailor-made for you, according to your needs, generated with AI and advanced algorithms.”
Abrahami said the design and layout “are completely fitted to the site’s content,” rather than the content fitting a template.
If you want to perform light edits or something more substantial, you can simply continue your conversation with the chatbot to make those changes.
The feature even helps you find the ideal name for your brand by generating unique, catchy, and relevant domain names to choose from.
And for those already with a Wix-powered site, the new AI tool can be used to enhance your pages via a conversation with ChatGPT.
But there could be drawbacks to getting AI to build your website. For example, ChatGPT and other generative AI chatbots are known to “hallucinate” on occasion, a phenomenon whereby it spits out erroneous information presented as fact, usually when it doesn’t know the answer to something. In that sense, the site builder will still need to carefully check some types of content to ensure that it’s correct.
While Wix already incorporates a number of AI tools, the AI Site Generator, which it says will launch soon, brings everything together and is its biggest dive into the technology to date.

I taught ChatGPT to teach me board games, and now I won’t ever go back
Teaching complex board games seems like the perfect task for ChatGPT. Being able to ask it specific questions is a whole lot easier than flipping through a rules manual or digging through forum posts online.
And after weeks of effort and a healthy dose of prompt engineering, I have created the ultimate board game rules lawyer with ChatGPT. It can "learn" any game you throw at it, base games and expansions, and can answer nuanced questions accurately, with rulebook references so you can check its work.
NY lawyers fined for using fake ChatGPT cases in legal brief
The clumsy use of ChatGPT has landed a New York City law firm with a $5,000 fine.
Having heard so much about OpenAI’s impressive AI-powered chatbot, lawyer Steven Schwartz decided to use it for research, adding ChatGPT-generated case citations to a legal brief handed to a judge earlier this year. But it soon emerged that the cases had been entirely made up by the chatbot.
This web browser integrates ChatGPT in a fascinating new way
It’s no secret that artificial intelligence (AI) and chatbots have taken the tech world by storm in recent months. Now, the Opera browser is trying to get in on the action by releasing Opera One, which it dubs “the first AI-powered browser.”
Opera (the company) describes it as “the latest incarnation of the Opera browser,” one that has been given a “major makeover.” The company “reimagined and rebuilt Opera from the ground up,” it says, “paving the way for a new era in which AI isn’t just an add-on, but a core part of your browsing experience.”
