Are you one of the many people who still haven’t quite got to grips with ChatGPT? Well, you are not alone. Artificial Intelligence in the form of ChatGPT is a clever piece of technology and developing at an incredible pace. AI is going to impact our lives in the same way that the Telegraph did for the Victorians and the Internet did for the Millennials.
The one issue that could be slowing down the adoption of AI and ChatGPT into many people’s workflows is the need to schlepp all the way to the browser so you can type your prompt into ChatGPT and wait for an answer.
In ChatGPT, a prompt is a question or a request for something, like the wording for an email, the creation of an AI image or asking for information on a particular subject so ChatGPT can get to work for you. You need to build or write your prompt into ChatGPT’s window to ask a question.

When you get your answer back from ChatGPT, you then need to copy and paste the result into the window of Microsoft Word or whatever other software you are using to create content. It’s a bit of an hassle and can break the workflow.
Often, something as simple as a bit of inconvenience can slow the widespread adoption of a piece of technology, like ChatGPT. That round trip to the browser could be one of the reasons why some people haven’t yet incorporated AI into their daily workflow.
Mouse and keyboard maker Logitech has anticipated this roadblock and has addressed it by adding a new function to its Logi Options+ software. The Logi AI Prompt Builder is a one-click solution that can overlay a ChatGPT prompt builder window directly within whatever content you are working on.

At first, I was a bit skeptical of the idea but the more I tried it, using an advanced beta version of Logi Options+, the more sense it began to make. Imagine you have a blank page staring back at you when trying to compose an email. Simply click your mouse and type in a few prompt parameters such as “Compose me an email asking for permission to use an image,” then click on one of Logitech’s ready-made prompt building recipes and it’s all done for you.
Logitech has developed several basic AI prompt recipes for ChatGPT and there are sure to be more to come. You can use recipes like Rephrase, Create Email or Summarize, but you can also specify the tone you want, whether that be friendly, academic, professional or playful.
The prompt window also lets you select choosethe length of article or word count you want. Then sit back and wait a few seconds for ChatGPT to work. If you like what the prompt gives you, simply paste it into your app or else refine the prompt a little more to get a more suitable result.
Having ChatGPT available without leaving your software makes AI much more accessible.
The new Logi AI Prompt Builder is available from today via an update to Logi Options+ and it will works within any app running on your PC or Mac. The beauty of the new feature is you don’t have to interrupt your workflow to summon up the power of AI using ChatGPT. It seems so logical to harness AI in this way and a keyboard or mouse are the perfect tools to use.
To mark the launch of the new feature, Logitech has made a limited edition AI version of its excellent Signature 750 mouse. The new rodent will have a direct AI button, plus two more buttons for accessing ChatGPT directly and for turning on dictation so you can vocalize your prompt rather than typing or pasting it in.
Pricing & Availability: The Logi AI Prompt Builder is free as part of the Logi Options+ software and is available from today. The Logitech Signature AI Edition Mouse will be available this month exclusively on Logitech.com in the United States and the United Kingdom priced at $49.99 / £54.99.
