Is inputing your API key on some random (sorry to the creator) website really a good idea?

- 8organicbits 4y agoIt's not. Eventually we'll have OAuth and that will be the preferred approach.
- malaya_zemlya 4y agoCuriously, they already have something like that already. If you take a course on deeplearning.ai (I tried ChatGPT Prompt Engineering for Developers), you can run a notebook that accesses OpenAI API. If you look closely, you'll notice they authenticate not with an API key but with a temporary JWT token that gets handed to you when you start a lesson. I don't know how they do it, but it's certaily possible.
- avereveard 4y agoIn general not, but openai has made a wonderful job of key management with instant revocation,soft and hard limits, and alerts all the way. I can confidently experiment by generating a new key, and I'll only ever lose a dollar, as my threshold is fairly low and matches the usage in my own projects.
- hackernewds 4y agonot everyone will do this though. security is meant for the idiot users
