AI: Simple Stateless Query

See more AI Examples

Demonstrates the simplest stateless query: asking an AI to "Say Hello". This query is standalone and not part of a conversation. Ruby

require 'chilkat'

success = false

#  This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
#  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

ai = Chilkat::CkAi.new()

#  The provider can be "openai", "google", "claude", "deepseek", "xai", or "perplexity".
#  Support for additional providers will be added in future versions of Chilkat.
ai.put_Provider("openai")

#  Use your provider's API key.
ai.put_ApiKey("MY_API_KEY")

#  Choose a model.
ai.put_Model("gpt-5.6-terra")

#  Add a text input.
ai.InputAddText("Say Hello.")

#  Ask the AI for text output.
success = ai.Ask("text")
if (success == false)
    print ai.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

#  Get the text response.
sbResponse = Chilkat::CkStringBuilder.new()
ai.GetOutputTextSb(sbResponse)
print sbResponse.getAsString() + "\n";

#  Sample output:
#  Hello! How can I assist you today?
