Introducing Finish Changes and Outlines, now available in Gemini Code Assist extensions on IntelliJ and VS Code

Google has introduced Finish Changes and Outlines for Gemini Code Assist in IntelliJ and VS Code to reduce developer friction and eliminate the need for long, manual prompting. Finish Changes acts as an AI pair programmer that completes code, implements pseudocode, and applies refactoring patterns by observing your current edits and context. Meanwhile, Outlines improves code comprehension by generating interactive, high-level English summaries interleaved directly within the source code to help engineers navigate and understand complex files.
