Implement API to Generate Tweets Using OpenAI
Learn how to implement the API that uses OpenAI and a prompt to generate Twitter tweets based on a given topic.
We'll cover the following...
Before creating the API endpoint, let's make a script ready that will accept a topic on which the user wants to generate the tweet. We will use the GPT model and a suitable prompt to generate the tweet. Let's start with the script.
Script to generate tweets using a topic
We will be writing a very simple script to generate the tweet. We will use opeanai
package to use the chat completions API from OpenAI and use the GPT-3 model with a prompt to generate the tweet. Let's jump directly into the code.

// Import the require moduleconst { OpenAI } = require("openai");// Function to generate tweet based on the topic givenconst generateTweetForTopic = async (topic) => {// Instance of OpenAIconst openai = new OpenAI({ apiKey: openai_api_key });// Use OpenAI chat completions and the prompt to generate the tweetconst response = await openai.chat.completions.create({model: 'gpt-3.5-turbo',messages: [{role: 'user',content: `You are an expert Twitter tweet generator. Write a tweeton the topic: ${topic} that can go viral on Twitter.It should be intersting, unique and catchy to read. Your toneshould be funny and your response should not containanything other than the tweet. Your tweet should be lessthan 255 characters.`}],temperature: 1.5});return response.choices[0].message.content.trim();}// Used the immediately invoked function expression(async () => {try{const tweet = await generateTweetForTopic('machine learning')console.log(tweet)} catch (e) {console.log('Error: ', e);}})();
