Ethereum blockchain explorer, Etherscan, has introduced an innovative artificial intelligence (AI) tool named “Code Reader” that utilizes OpenAI’s expansive language model to enable users to learn about the source code of any smart contract. The beta tool offers users targeted AI prompts that generate explanations for specific smart contract code sections or functions, giving them a comprehensive understanding of the code’s operations and functionality. Code Reader is ideally suited for those who are interacting with a smart contract for the first time, as it provides a deeper insight into the workings of the code.
