# AI SDK, Next.js, and OpenAI Chat Example
This example shows how to use the [AI SDK](https://ai-sdk.dev/docs) with [Next.js](https://nextjs.org/) and [OpenAI](https://openai.com) to create a ChatGPT-like AI-powered streaming chat bot.
## Deploy your own
Deploy the example using [Vercel](https://vercel.com?utm_source=github&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=ai-sdk-example):
[![Deploy with Vercel](https://vercel.com/button)](https://vercel.com/new/clone?repository-url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fvercel%2Fai%2Ftree%2Fmain%2Fexamples%2Fnext-openai&env=OPENAI_API_KEY&project-name=ai-sdk-next-openai&repository-name=ai-sdk-next-openai)
## How to use
Execute [`create-next-app`](https://github.com/vercel/next.js/tree/canary/packages/create-next-app) with [npm](https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/init), [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/lang/en/docs/cli/create/), or [pnpm](https://pnpm.io) to bootstrap the example:
```bash
npx create-next-app --example https://github.com/vercel/ai/tree/main/examples/next-openai next-openai-app
```
```bash
yarn create next-app --example https://github.com/vercel/ai/tree/main/examples/next-openai next-openai-app
```
```bash
pnpm create next-app --example https://github.com/vercel/ai/tree/main/examples/next-openai next-openai-app
```
To run the example locally you need to:
1. Sign up at [OpenAI's Developer Platform](https://platform.openai.com/signup).
2. Go to [OpenAI's dashboard](https://platform.openai.com/account/api-keys) and create an API KEY.
3. If you choose to use external files for attachments, then create a [Vercel Blob Store](https://vercel.com/docs/storage/vercel-blob).
4. Set the required environment variable as the token value as shown [the example env file](./.env.local.example) but in a new file called `.env.local`
5. `pnpm install` to install the required dependencies.
6. `pnpm dev` to launch the development server.
