Imagine selecting a paragraph and having ChatGPT automatically correct grammar and spelling errors, then seamlessly replacing it in your buffer. Well, imagine no more - it’s now a reality!

• Selects the current paragraph in Emacs.
• Sends it to ChatGPT for a grammar and spelling check.
• Replaces the original text with the corrected version, all within Emacs.
