Usually the way to use apis is by using the url block, or the Web services access (https) library for more complex requests. There's a lot that goes into using an api that I can't easily explain here, so you can just google how to use the gemini api.
Chrome can do both text-to-speech and speech-to-text. If it is a simple question answering service you can use a Snap! block like this: Using AI with words and sentences
Yeah? I wasn't talking about using an api for text to speech, I was talking about using an api for gemini, which is google's ai chatbot.
that doesnt give good answers and it doesnt know every topic
Right that was state-of-the-art in AI 5 years ago but the problem with using anything better is that either it costs to use it or it requires more hardware than is reasonable. E.g. a freely available LLM with 7 billion parameters might be good enough but that's asking a lot.
what if we can use a key word in question or statement identifier and then sear wiki for the answer. or if its math idk
You may be interested in checking out Cohere's LLM.
I forgot that they provide a free API key (not production quality but good enough for many purposes). And 2 years ago I made it one of the options for Snap! blocks to talk to LLMs:

I haven't updated it and the Cohere API may have changed.
Also be warned that in the past I've relied upon free APIs that after a year or so were no longer free. But Cohere's seems to have been free for a while now.

are you the one who made the generate image in style. do you know how the algorithm works
I don't know much more than what I wrote here
