Apps borrowing an AI brain
Many apps have an AI button without making their own AI. They borrow another company's brain through an API.
THE DOOR
What an API is
An API is a door that lets software talk to other software. The app sends a request through the door, and the AI sends the answer back.
COST
Paying per token
Every call is charged by tokens, small pieces of text, which is why apps often limit free use.
DATA
Where your words go
What you type in the app may be sent to the AI company, so don't paste private information there.
