A Slack bot that integrates OpenAI's ChatGPT to respond to mentions in Slack channels, written in Python.
ChatGPT for Slack Bot is a Python-based Slack bot that integrates with OpenAI's ChatGPT API to provide AI-generated responses when mentioned in Slack channels. It listens for `app_mention` events, sends user messages to the GPT-3 model, and returns the generated responses back to Slack. The bot handles authentication and session management with the OpenAI API to ensure reliable operation.
Developers and teams using Slack who want to integrate AI-powered conversational assistance directly into their workspace without relying on external chatbot services.
It offers a self-hosted, customizable solution for bringing ChatGPT capabilities into Slack, with straightforward setup using Docker or Python, and control over the AI interactions within a private Slack environment.

Open-Awesome is built by the community, for the community. Submit a project, suggest an awesome list, or help improve the catalog on GitHub.
Listens for app_mention events and responds in channels or DMs, with clear Slack app configuration steps for scopes like chat:write and im:write outlined in the README.
Uses the revChatGPT package to handle authentication and refresh sessions in a separate thread, preventing expiration during operation as described in the features.
Supports Docker Compose setup with customizable port settings (default 4000), simplifying deployment with environment variables in variables.env.
Provides straightforward instructions for setting OpenAI and Slack API keys via environment variables, reducing initial setup friction.
The tls-client library used by revChatGPT doesn't support ARM processors, making it unusable on devices like Raspberry Pi, as admitted in the README notes.
Relies on pre-trained GPT-3 without fine-tuning, so responses may be inaccurate for niche or recent topics, and it lacks custom training capabilities as noted in limitations.
Uses the revChatGPT package, which is unofficial and might have breaking changes or maintenance issues, adding risk compared to direct OpenAI API integration.
