I have a question regarding the recently added AI function in AntConc. It is written in the AntConc documentation: "Note that you will be charged by OpenAI for all API interactions according to their pricing scheme: https://openai.com/pricing". What does it mean? Currently, I have a free plan at ChatGPT. Does it mean that I can use the AI tool at AntConc for free too?
Thank you for your answer!

Best regards,
Slava

Hi Slava,

Sorry for the late reply. To use the current version of the ChatAI tool in AntConc, you need to provide an API key from OpenAI. If you have an account with them, you can apply for an API key and then you just need to put that key into AntConc. You will be charged for any use of the API by OpenAI. For simple interactions, the cost is tiny, but it could potentially increase if you are using big context windows of results. 

I'm working now on adding open source/open weight models to AntConc so that no API keys are needed.

I hope that helps.

Laurence.
