Natural language input

Natural language input lets you describe what you want in the Algebra input instead of typing a command. It works in the desktop apps and the web app.

Using it

1. Start the Algebra input with ?. The plus next to the input turns into a sparkle, and the input takes plain text.
2. Describe what you want, for example ?draw a square with side length 4 or ?circle through A and B with its center on the x-axis.
3. Press Enter or click the sparkle.

While the AI works, the input is locked and the sparkle turns into a spinner. The AI carries out the request with the same tools as the AI sidebar. When it is done, the input is cleared and a short answer shows at the bottom of the window. If something goes wrong, the error shows there instead and your request stays in the input, so you can change it and try again.

Delete the ? to go back to normal input.

Setting it up

Natural language input needs a model. See Model providers. It uses the provider and model chosen under Settings > AI features > AI sidebar.

To turn it off, open Settings > AI features > Natural language input and turn off Turn on natural language input.

Exams

Natural language input is turned off during exams, unless a plugin made for exams allows the AI features.
