  1. Don’t have ChatGPT
  2. OCR needed
  3. Preferably Android

Thanks.

Android won’t be easy, but you can slap together a python script that runs tesseract or easyOCR and runs it through a pretrained LLM like T5. Those are well-known and well-documented, so chatGPT can probably write the script for you without too many hiccups.

From OP:

  1. Don’t have ChatGPT

I read that as either “I don’t have premium” or “I can’t run this data through chatgpt for whatever reason”.

Free chatGPT is viable for writing scripts in any case.

Yeah, maybe he/she don’t have API access, I didn’t think about it that way.

I’m guessing they meant don’t want to use chatGPT considering it’s free

Well, you give open AI a lot of personal data, so it’s not free from a certain point of view. That may be the reason why OP don’t want to use it.
