How To Install Auto-GPT On Mac OS (Run AutoGPT In Terminal)

in this quick tutorial I'm going to show you how to install auto GPT on a Mac we're going to install get Python vs code I'm going to get an open AI key and finally run auto GPT locally from the terminal now first thing you want to do is go to Google and type download git here just go to the first search results and click on download for Mac button now here you have several options of installing git one of them is using Homebrew but probably the fastest way is to just go here where we have binary installer by Tim Harper click on the installer link it's going to get you to this page and just click on the download button and install that file on your system now another option to install git is to use Homebrew so if you go to this link then browse down and copy this URL over here then go to your terminal paste that link into the terminal and hit enter now this might take a long time but if it means we're getting Auto GPT it's worth the wait now once git is installed you should be able to run git dash dash version and if you see Git Version number that means it's installed now go back to Google and start typing download python then go to the first search results and click on this yellow download python 3.11 button Auto GPT requires python 3.8 or greater it's not going to work with python 2 which is installed on the Mac by default once you download the python file just go ahead and click on the file and just go through the python installation now once python is installed go to your terminal and type python version now you will see the default version 2.7 that's the default version you have on your Mac but to use the one we installed we have to use Python 3 dash dash version to run auto GPT we're going to use Python 3 command now go back to Google and type download vs code and you can use any editor but this is one of the best ones so go to the first search result and here choose the Mac version of vs code and once you download the file go ahead and click on this Arrow here next to the file and go to show in the finder now hold down the control key and click on vs code and here go to open with archive utility this is going to extract vs code into the same folder now just double click on the extracted file and this will launch vs code okay so go back to Google and type download Auto GPT browse down to the first search result here and this is the auto GPT GitHub page so here click on this green code button now copy this URL over here go back to terminal and start typing git clone and paste the URL now just hit enter and this will copy Auto GPT to your hard drive from the git repository now it's actually going to create another folder called Auto GPT so we need to go inside that folder and that's done by typing CD or GPT it's important that you're in this folder now go back to vs code and in the upper left corner go to file and select open folder option now go ahead and find auto-gpt folder which is created on the command line make sure it's selected and click open on the left hand side in the project files find the file called requirements.txt it has all the python dependencies for this project that we need to install so go back to the terminal and start typing pip which is Python's package installer so space install Dash R requirements.txt hit enter and if you get command not found pip error try to use pip 3 command which is the same thing but for python 3. now hit enter in your dependencies should be installed now go to Google and type open AI sign up or just sign up for openai account I already have my open AI account registered and I'm signed in so I'm just going to go to this link API keys now on this page go ahead and click on the create new secret key button and once it's generated click on the copy button here now go back to vs code and here find the file saying dot end dot template hold down the command key and press in the file then here on the menu go to rename so now go ahead and delete that template part completely and press enter so now we just have dot in now in this file find the line saying open AI API key make sure to start with double quotes and paste your open AI API key as its value here now go back to terminal and I'm going to show you one mistake you can potentially make when trying to run auto GPT so generally to run it all you have to do is type python Dash m Auto GPT now this may or may not work if it doesn't work use the Python 3 command to do the same thing so Python 3 space Dash m space or GPT and press enter
