# Generate code

Quadratic AI Chat can build whole analyses from scratch or edit and assist with existing code. Quadratic AI will default to Python, but you can ask for additional languages like JavaScript or Formulas.

## Insert and view code

Quadratic AI will default to inserting generated code. You can always view the code generated, make edits, move the code cell, or re-add the code cell.

## Build models and analytics workflows from scratch

The AI can see and understand the data in your sheet, allowing you to ask almost any question without needing to tell the AI any extra context. It will generate the analysis and automatically place the code in the sheet.&#x20;

Sometimes, the AI generates multiple code cells, data + code, or any possible combination that best answers your query.

## Create charts

Create infinitely flexible charts with Quadratic AI. If you need to make edits, either do it directly in code or ask the AI to do it directly.

You can ask for edits like chart type, data used, titles, background colors, layouts, axes styling, etc. &#x20;

## Fixing errors &#x20;

Quadratic AI is great at fixing errors in your code. Whenever there's an error, you can ask for the fix directly in chat or use the `Fix with AI` button. The AI will attempt to fix it and explain how it works. You can then either accept or reject the code change.
