To connect to the ChatGPT API using Perl, you can make use of HTTP::Request and LWP::UserAgent. The following is a simplified example of how you may do this:
```
use LWP::UserAgent;
use HTTP::Request::Common qw(POST);
use JSON;
my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
my $api_endpoint = ‘https://api.openai.com/v1/engines/davinci-codex/completions’;
my $request = POST,
Authorization => ‘Bearer YOUR_OPENAI_KEY’,
‘OpenAI-Version’ => ’2020-05-03’,
);
my $response = $ua->request($request);
if ($response->is_success) {
print $response->decoded_content;
} else {
die $response->status_line;
}
```
This script creates a new request using the POST method. Ensure to replace `“Bearer YOUR_OPENAI_KEY”` with your actual OpenAI key. Please note that you should wait for the HTTP response to complete before using the returned data, and handle exceptions where necessary since network operations can fail for various reasons. Also, I just wrote pseudocode, which needs further adjustment according to the real situation.
