Blender can be controlled using program scripts written in Python. Recent Large Language Models like OpenAI's GPT-4 can generate these Python scripts from simple English and execute them. This plugin provides an easy to use interface that integrates OpenAI's GPT-4/GPT-3.5 right in the UI, allowing you to use natural language commands to control Blender.
Access to GPT-4 in this addon can ONLY be obtained through the OpenAI waitlist (https://openai.com/waitlist/gpt-4-api), which in turn grants your account access to this model via the API.
GPT-4 access via the API is different from GPT-4 access via ChatGPT-Plus ($20/month subscription). This addon will only work with GPT-4 if you have been accepted into the waitlist (https://openai.com/waitlist/gpt-4-api) and have access to the API via your OpenAI API key
