Theoretical workaround: use autohotkey to input data to the web interface in chunks, then download and parse the .html when it's done for clean output. Possibly against their TOS though. API would be easier.

They have specific measurements to make sure you don't just re-create your own version of whatever it is they're doing in the ChatGPT UI, right?

I just use small python snippets in Jupyter notebooks and the api. Use a chat to try and walk you through setup?

3.5 is incredibly cheap. If you’re using it for personal use, it would be very hard to exceed $20.

I kind of don't understand why I'm allowed "free unlimited" GPT-4 usage (25 messages every 3 hours with the $20/mo) if I use the web browser to interact with the API, but if I use the API, it's blocked off/not allowed. I'd love to build integrations using the $20/mo limits I'm already paying for. Is this currently an option that you know of?

Edit:

> Please note that the ChatGPT API is not included in the ChatGPT Plus subscription and are billed separately. The API has its own pricing, which can be found at https://openai.com/pricing. The ChatGPT Plus subscription covers usage on chat.openai.com only and costs $20/month.

Nope.

You're allowed free usage of the web interface because the web interface uses your data for training. The API interface does not use your data for training. It's a classic 'if it's free, you're the product' situation.
