Ok, GPT is a simple telegram bot to send voice messages to ChatGPT and get outputs. Requires your own OpenAI API key (and hence a paid subscription) to work.

Installation

Create a new Telegram bot with BotFather bot

• Start a new conversation with the BotFather.
• Send /newbot to create a new Telegram bot.
• When asked, enter a name for the bot.
• Give the Telegram bot a unique username. ...
• Copy and save the Telegram bot's access token for later steps.

Get OpenAI API key

Set up your own OpenAI account. Visit https://platform.openai.com/account/api-keys in your OpenAI account to create a new API key.

Set up API keys for the bot

The bot requires some API keys to run. There are two ways of providing them:

• environment variables. Provide the env variables listed in template.env. This option is more convenient for a cloud installation.
• .env file in the project root. You should manually create it. I do not provide my own .env file because of security reasons, but I put template.env as a template for the keys required. This option is better suited for a local installation.

Cloud installation

For most clouds, it should be sufficient to just push the git repo and let them build everything for you. This, for example, works for Railway, Heroku, and others. The repo already has the Dockerfile and Makefile provided.

So all you need is to set up the API keys as described above.

Local installation

Set up Python environment

make env
source venv/bin/activate

Run the bot

./venv/bin/python ./src/app.py

Use Ctrl+c to stop the bot.

Enjoy!
