Are there any free alternatives of 'Chat GPT' LLM style bots in automations?

Hey there,

I was experimenting with using chat based LLM bots within automations; I feel these could be really useful in making sense of more complicated information which doesn’t follow a pattern.

I tried plugging in the OpenAI chat companions via the API link, but I soon realised that this is a paid service to query. I was wondering if there are any recommended AI plugins which are free to use?

The alternative to this, I suppose, is having the bot log into Chat GPT and having it type/scrape a query, but this seems quite clunky vs a swift activity.

Thanks in advance!

there are in house gen AI activities but event they consume something called as AI units which come with a cost from UiPath. In community version you can perform minimal number of queries for experimental purpose just as chatgpt allows few number of queries per day

cheers

So ‘no’ then to a free one ahaha. Manually logging into Chat GPT may be the option…

@dr1992

Yes nothing is completely free

even for chatgpt you need to pay after certain number of asks

cheers

Thats also a hard no.
Thats explicitly against the Terms of Service for Chat GPT and can result in your account being suspended and your IP address being banned.

To quote the TOS from Open AI / Chat GPT

“You may not use automated or programmatic methods to use the Services or access any content on the Services unless we’ve explicitly authorized you to do so.”

Noted, I wasn’t aware, thanks. Quite ironic they don’t like people automatically accessing their service considering how they trained it haha.

There is Ollama which allows you to download open source model such as Mistral, qwen or llama.

You can use it to download model of your choice then use it.

Thank you for the info, I haven’t used these before - any good?
