# 🧠 AI Chatbot in C using Groq API
🚀 **A lightweight and efficient AI chatbot built in C**, leveraging **cURL** to interact with the **Groq API** for AI-generated responses. This project explores AI development in a low-level programming environment, integrating real-time conversation capabilities into a **terminal-based chatbot**.
## 📌 Features
✅ **Groq API Integration** – Fetches AI-generated responses dynamically
✅ **cURL for HTTP Requests** – Handles API communication seamlessly
✅ **Interactive Chat Interface** – Smooth user experience in the terminal
✅ **Optimized String Processing** – Efficient parsing and formatting of AI responses
✅ **Lightweight & Fast** – Built entirely in C for performance
## 🛠️ Installation & Usage
### 1️⃣ Prerequisites
Ensure you have the following installed:
- **GCC Compiler** (`gcc`)
- **Groq API Key** (Sign up at [Groq API](https://groq.com/) and set `GROQ_API_KEY` in your environment)
- **cURL Library** (`libcurl`)
To install `libcurl`:
```sh
# Ubuntu/Debian
sudo apt update && sudo apt install libcurl4-openssl-dev
# Fedora
sudo dnf install libcurl-devel
# Arch Linux
sudo pacman -S curl
# macOS (Homebrew)
brew install curl
```
For Windows:
1. Download libcurl from [https://curl.se/windows/](curl.se/windows).
2. Extract and add the include and lib paths to your MinGW compiler.

### 2️⃣ Clone the Repository
```sh
git https://github.com/subhadeeproy3902/AI-Terminal-Bot.git
cd AI-Terminal-Bot
```
### 3️⃣ Set Up API Key
```sh
export GROQ_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"
```
For Windows (PowerShell):
```powershell
$env:GROQ_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"
```
### 4️⃣ Compile the Chatbot
```sh
gcc chatbot.c -o c.out -lcurl
```
### 5️⃣ Run the Chatbot
```sh
./c.out
```
Start chatting! Type `exit` to quit.
## 🔥 How It Works
1. **User Input**: The user types a message in the terminal.
2. **API Request**: The chatbot sends the message to the **Groq API** using `cURL`.
3. **AI Response**: The API processes the request and returns a response.
4. **Display**: The chatbot extracts the response and prints it in a formatted way.
💡 **The bot is designed to be direct, professional, and does not use markdown in responses.**
