discord-ai [Deprecated]

Small Node.js Typescript Discord bot using the OpenAI API to answer questions.

About the project

Started developing this project to learn more about the OpenAI API and how to use it and to try integrating ai in Discord. Discord then released their own ai bot, so I decided to stop developing this project. It's still interesting to see how to use the OpenAI API and how to integrate it in a Discord bot.
