Build ChatGPT AI Tool in React JS

ChatGPT is a powerful AI tool that can generate human-like responses to user input. In this article, we will learn how to build a ChatGPT AI tool in React JS using the OpenAI API. We will create a simple web application where users can interact with the AI tool and see its responses in real-time.

Prerequisites

In order to build our ChatGPT AI tool, we will need the following:

• Basic knowledge of React JS
• An OpenAI API key
• A code editor (such as VS Code)

Setting up the Project

First, we need to create a new React JS project. Open your terminal and run the following command:

npx create-react-app chatgpt-ai-tool

Once the project is created, navigate into the project directory and install the necessary dependencies:

cd chatgpt-ai-tool
npm install openai

Creating the AI Tool Component

Now, let’s create a new component for our ChatGPT AI tool. In the src directory, create a new file called ChatGPT.js:


import React, { useState, useEffect } from 'react';
import openai from 'openai';

);
};
export default ChatGPT;


In the above code, we have created a functional component called ChatGPT. It uses the useState hook to manage the input and response state. We also use the useEffect hook to make a request to the OpenAI API whenever the input changes.

Using the AI Tool Component

Now that we have created the ChatGPT component, let’s use it in our main App.js file:


import React from 'react';
import './App.css';
import ChatGPT from './ChatGPT';

export default App;


Now, when you run your React JS project using npm start, you should see a simple web application with an input field that allows users to ask questions and see the AI’s responses in real-time.

Conclusion

In this article, we learned how to build a ChatGPT AI tool in React JS using the OpenAI API. By creating a simple web application, users can interact with the AI tool and see its responses in real-time. This project can be extended further by adding more features such as chat history, user authentication, and more.
