Building a C# and ChatGPT Translator with Minimal Code

In the recent few months, ChatGPT has become very famous and everyone is talking about it. So, I finally decided to play with the API they provide and see what I can build with this new and cool technology. This seems like a new door for some cool possibilities. In this article, I want to show how you can use ChatGPT in C# and make a small console app that can translate your text to French and Armenian languages at the same time. After reading this article, you should be able to use ChatGPT API in your C# projects; however, this example is going to be very simple but it’s a very good example because it won’t have complicated code and also I can show you how easily we can use ChatGPT to add some fancy feature in our projects.

Get an API Key from ChatGPT

First of all, you need to generate your ChatGPT’s API key. Go here and create your API Key and copy that to a safe place.

Then I’m going to create a console app and name it Translator, this is going to use .NET 7.0 and all my code is going to be in the Programs.cs file. The next thing we are going to need is the OpenAI NuGet package to be able to connect the ChatGPT.
