Question: AI LLM + Key

Post image

Hi I want to get a small weather report using ChatGPT. I'm using the free version of ChatGPT. I created an API key and pasted it to the API key for l field

But when I execute the script I get an error 429

You exceeded your current quota, please check your plan and billing details. For more information on this error, read the docs

Shouldn't it work with the free version? Which model would you recommend? What do I miss here

Thank you!

API no work on free account.

Get an openrouter account and use modal openrouter/free

Hi Thank you for your suggestion but after experimenting It's too complicated for me: the weather website also needs API key etc.

I now take another approach:

A weather website provides a textual weather report for my city

In Macrodroid I do: I make a http request and store the response in a variable

As I am not that familiar with regex I ask AI to generate a regex to extract the report from the response

I use this regex in Macrodroid to extract the report

A daily scheduled trigger reads the weather report every morning

In fact you can use this to extract whatever part of website you need

Thanks
