... Isn't chatGPT already available as an API?

Or is this just a wrapper to the chatGPT public and free frontend?

If thats the case I don't think this is fair use.

This is hooking into the ChatGPT UI API, which is something OpenAI does not like to see and could result in banning of the account. Of course, since it's using playwright to simulate a browser, it might be hard to detect, but still, I'd be cautious.

I don't even get why people wouldn't use normal GPT API (OpenAI completions) instead. Isn't it exactly the same except that ChatGPT is primed to be more conversational (which in many cases as the one in the OP is just noise anyway)?

There are some differences. For example ChatGPT underwent an extra finetuning step using reinforcement learning and it supports 8k tokens instead of 4k.

Yep, they have an API.

they dont have api for chatgpt, they have api for davinci
