Learn to build your own AI ChatBot with Flutter and OpenAI.

Isn’t it is really fun and convenient to be able to chat away on chatGPT’s chatbot application? . But wouldn’t it be even nicer if you had your own chatbot application where you could customize things as needed? This gives us on much bigger control on what AI model we want to use, how much we want to restrict or customize it, how much we want to spend and a whole lot more. Well in this tutorial, we are going to do just that and create a chatbot in flutter using Dart as programming language and API from open AI.

Once you have learned the basic building process, you can spend your days and nights customizing as you like and continue to have more fun.

To make the process more fun we will actually build a clone of Microsoft’s Copilot ChatBot Application. For one it is always fun to try to create a clone of something existing, at the same time we do not have to spend too much time worrying about what the UI should look like. Instead we will just focus on our primary goal. Our goal here is to build the architecture that allows to build a functioning chat bot application in flutter.

So lets get started !

Prerequisites:

Dart & Flutter installed .
IDE (VSCode , Android Studio, IntellijIDEA)
An Emulator or a physical device configured to development mode.
*XCode(optional, only if you need to build and test iOS app)
OpenAI Developer account with access to API ( If you dont have one , need to create one with credit card info along with minimum payment to get access)
