Receiving Error Code 429 #6

Open OESNES opened 10 months ago

OESNES commented 10 months ago

I am using a free ChatGPT account, have provided a new OpenAI API key, and set the Model to Chat 3.5 Turbo. As I am only using your extension and not running any other software which access ChatGPT, why am I receiving this error telling me I am making too many API calls?

429 Means you hit the usage limit of your free account quota or your quota has expired. You may set up a new free account or use the paid account's API Key to continue.

I did as you said and started a brand new personal account. It is a free account and still received the error 429 API usage limit. I am not planning to pay for the $20/month account, have you thought about allowing the use of another LLM AI like Bard, Code Whisperer, etc.?

UPDATE: I looked through the OpenAI docs and came across a note that states the OpenAI API needs a paid account. (https://platform.openai.com/account/usage). This may need to be noted as part of Commit 1482c26.

We appreciate your feedback. I think new OpenAI Account may have some free quota to try the API?

Indeed, GPTutor has the potential to extend its support to other Language Models (LLMs) as long as they offer an API for integration. Furthermore, we are actively planning to include them in the near future, and if you have the time and inclination, we warmly welcome your contributions! Providing integration examples would greatly expedite our progress.
