Etherscan launches AI-powered Code Reader By Cointelegraph

[ad_1]



On June 19, block explorer and analytics platform Etherscan launched a new tool, dubbed “Code Reader,” that utilizes artificial intelligence to retrieve and interpret the source code of a specific contract address. After user prompt input, Code Reader generates a response via OpenAI’s large language model (LLM), providing insight into the contract’s source code files. Etherscan developers wrote:

Use cases for Code Reader include gaining deeper insight into contracts’ code via AI-generated explanations, obtaining comprehensive lists of smart contract functions related to Ethereum data, and understanding how the underlying contract interacts with decentralized applications (dApps). “Once the contract files are retrieved, you can choose a specific source code file to read through. Additionally, you may modify the source code directly inside the UI before sharing it with the AI,” developers wrote.
