-: Okay, so if you're not a programmer,

00:01.710 --> 00:03.570
feel free to skip this section.

00:03.570 --> 00:06.150
A lot of these videos will be using the OpenAI platform

00:06.150 --> 00:08.550
and how to use code inside of that platform.

00:08.550 --> 00:09.870
Okay, so the first thing I want you to do

00:09.870 --> 00:13.410
is navigate to platform.openai.com.

00:13.410 --> 00:15.120
You're gonna need to create an account here.

00:15.120 --> 00:16.890
So go and sign up.

00:16.890 --> 00:19.200
Once you've signed up and logged in,

00:19.200 --> 00:20.850
I want you to go to the top right,

00:20.850 --> 00:23.520
click on the cog, which is settings.

00:23.520 --> 00:25.470
Then I want you to go to your Billing,

00:25.470 --> 00:28.290
and what you'll need to do is add a payment method for this

00:28.290 --> 00:29.640
and add some credits.

00:29.640 --> 00:32.070
This basically means that when you start using OpenAI,

00:32.070 --> 00:34.200
you're gonna start consuming a certain amount of money

00:34.200 --> 00:35.790
for using that API service.

00:35.790 --> 00:37.470
So you'll need to set some billing up.

00:37.470 --> 00:38.730
After setting up billing,

00:38.730 --> 00:41.670
you'll then go to the API key section on the left-hand side,

00:41.670 --> 00:44.040
and you'll need to create a new API key.

00:44.040 --> 00:47.340
I'd recommend not sharing this and keeping this secret.

00:47.340 --> 00:49.470
If people have access to your API keys,

00:49.470 --> 00:51.060
then they can cost you money.

00:51.060 --> 00:53.460
Therefore, always keep your API key a secret.

00:53.460 --> 00:54.720
We're gonna create an API key.

00:54.720 --> 00:57.030
I'm gonna attach it to a project, the default project,

00:57.030 --> 00:58.770
and then I've got a secret key here.

00:58.770 --> 01:00.300
Copy this to your clipboard,

01:00.300 --> 01:02.340
as you won't be able to access this again.

01:02.340 --> 01:03.810
Make sure to keep this safe.

01:03.810 --> 01:05.220
In the next video, we'll have a look

01:05.220 --> 01:06.810
at the OpenAI Playground

01:06.810 --> 01:09.060
and why that's useful for you as a developer.
