How to Get ChatGPT-Powered Clippy AI on Windows 11

The much-loved Clippy assistant is back on Windows, but this time around, it’s not Microsoft behind the resurrection. Microsoft is working on Windows Copilot instead, which is also available to try out right now. Clippy has been resurrected by a developer who goes by the name FireCube on Twitter. They have developed a ChatGPT-powered Clippy, and it works well on Windows 11. Using your OpenAI API key, you can chat with Clippy on your Windows 11 desktop. So to get AI-powered Clippy on Windows 11, follow our tutorial below.

Step 1: Get OpenAI API Key for Clippy
