BBC NEWS Summarizer with OpenAI GPT-3.5

This repository contains a NEWS summarizer for BBC.com using OpenAI GPT-3.5 with the OpenAI API key. The code takes the latest articles from BBC.com and provides a concise summary of each article using the power of GPT-3.5 language model.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

Before running the code, make sure you have the following installed:

• Python (version 3.6 or higher)
• pip (Python package manager)

Installation

1. Clone this repository to your local machine:

git clone https://github.com/your_username/BBC-Summarizer.git
cd bbc_news_summarizer

2. Install the required dependencies using pip:

pip install -r requirements.txt

API Key Setup

To use the OpenAI GPT-3.5 language model, you need an API key from OpenAI. Follow these steps to set up your API key:

1. Sign up or log in to your OpenAI account at https://platform.openai.com/.
2. Generate an API key from your dashboard.
3. Replace the openai_api_key variable in run.py with your actual API key:

# Set your OpenAI API key here
openai_api_key = "YOUR_API_KEY"

Running the Summarizer

To use the NEWS summarizer, follow these steps:

1. Make sure you have set up the API key as explained above.
2. Open the run.py file and find the summarized parameter. By default, it is set to False, which means it will provide a summary directly from BBC.com. To use GPT-3.5 for summarization, set summarized = True.

# Set summarized to True for GPT-3.5 summarization
summarizer.get_articles(
    openai_api_key=openai_api_key, hours=5, body=False, summarized=True
)

3. Run the script:

python run.py

The summarizer will fetch the latest articles from BBC.com and either provide summaries using GPT-3.5 or display the original article based on the value of the summarized parameter.
