I agree that it would help to clarify that to get the OpenAI API key to work, you need to set up billing, and once you've used up the initial credits, you will incur usage based costs.
I know we don't need to copy the entire terms of service in the link, and we're not going to follow every step OpenAI make in detail.
But maybe someone can come up with a succinct phrase that we can put in brackets.
just "requires credit card" is not 100 % accurate, because IIRC, you get some free credit initially, and unlike AWS you are not forced to provide a CC before even starting on the free tier.
Maybe "(requires credit card after initial free tier)"? too long?
Hello @nczempin @HappyPony Thanks for the feedback!! We currently make the assumption that user are using there free credits that OpenAI gives!! Ill look into getting clear instructions so that people new to Openai api key system will be aware !! Would one of you be willing to tackle this issue !!!

I don't have any free credits in my OpenAI profile. I just see that my credits have expired - s. screnshot. Do you know if as OpenAI user need to register extra for API Key? I don't remember if I registered separately for OpenAI API Key or OpenAI gives credits automatically when you register here https://platform.openai.com/.
Would one of you be willing to tackle this issue !!!
Please tell me @jasangill1 what to do?
IIRC, you get free credits as soon as you register for the API key, and they expire after a month?
Here How to Get ChatGPT API Key Free & Use it, 03.07.2023 everything is explained in detail.
Is my assumption correct that for the development of client side AgentGPT-features that do not require communication with OpenAI servers, e.g. like the ability to rename agents after run is complete and Personalize agents with avatars is not a paid plan, no credit with OpenAI is necessary?
Hello @HappyPony correct you can always develop on the client side without ur API key, you can also enable Mock_agent
in the .env
file to never need ur API key while developing. Also seems like you activated the account already. You could try making a new one or emailing openai support
What piece of documentation is affected?
Setup https://docs.reworkd.ai/development/setup
What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?
Section "Prerequisietes"
So that users can reconcile their desire to run AgentGPT locally with their financial capabilities with respect to pricing https://openai.com/pricing#language-models and prepare a smooth Local AgentGPT installation.
Additional Information
I suggest that is clarified and the AgentGPT instructions are added in the the reference: To use AgentGPT locally, you need a credit with OpenAI. You need to deposit some contribution (how much?) at OpenAI. s. also https://discord.com/channels/1094791204958392551/1127834955125366945/1129314060912046150
