As we all know, the Bot API of Telegram provides many functions, such as receiving and sending messages, handling keyboard input, and many other functions. Therefore, we can easily chat with a Telegram bot by integrating ChatGPT. However, the traditional integration method requires an OpenAI API key, and OpenAI only provides a free quota of $5, and without payment, you cannot use the GPT-4 model. In addition, you also need a server to run the program, which greatly limits the ability to use it for free. Therefore, today I will introduce a method that does not require any fees, and currently, apart from slow response, no other limitations have been found.
