Important!

To test this AI technology, obtaining an API key from the OpenAI portal is required. So, open this link (or go to the API Access section of your OpenAI account dashboard) and either generate a new API key or manage your existing API keys.

When done, copy and paste it into the API Key field and you are ready to test the template. Click the START button to begin. Note, that the template also has integrated text-to-speech and speech-to-text capabilities, so you are free to experiment with both entering text and dictating it:

While testing different options, note how the quality of responses is impacted by setting different values for Model, Creativity, and Max Tokens.

Modifying Template

To modify the template to create your own ChatGPT-like app, follow several simple steps below:
