I made ChatGPT look like a Google Doc
The creator built a web tool called GPT Disguise that makes ChatGPT's interface resemble a Google Doc, allowing users to hide their AI usage from casual observers. The tool replicates Google Docs' look including fonts, colors, and layout.
Background
- The user built a browser extension or web app called GPT Disguise that changes the visual appearance of ChatGPT's interface to mimic Google Docs, making it less obvious someone is using an AI chatbot in, say, a work or school setting.
- This plays into a broader trend of "coworking with AI on the sly" — people using ChatGPT for tasks (writing, coding, research) while their employer or school discourages or bans it.
- The project reflects a cat-and-mouse dynamic: AI companies update their UI; tools like this one update to stay ahead of detection by a casual glance or automated monitoring.
- It's a lightweight, client-side tool (runs in the browser, no backend), underscoring how trivial it is to disguise an AI interface with a few lines of CSS and JavaScript.
