Verify latest release

• I verified that the issue exists in the latest chatgpt release

Verify webapp is working

• I verify that the ChatGPT webapp is working properly for this account.

Environment details

NodeJS v18.17.0
Ubuntu 22.04

Describe the Bug

Steps to Reproduce :
import { ChatGPTUnofficialProxyAPI } from "chatgpt";
const api = new ChatGPTUnofficialProxyAPI({
accessToken: "xxx",
apiReverseProxyUrl: "yyy",
});

Importing the module does not work in typescript backend, it seems to stem from some incompatibility the module has with cjs that typescript compiler spits out. Is there a way to go about this without reconfiguring the ts config? PS even that doesnt work.

Error: Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: require() of ES Module /home/bot/Desktop/Projects/Mains/studera-be/node_modules/chatgpt/build/index.js from /home/bot/Desktop/Projects/Mains/studera-be/utils/utils.ts not supported.
Instead change the require of index.js in /home/bot/Desktop/Projects/Mains/studera-be/utils/utils.ts to a dynamic import() which is available in all CommonJS modules.

I run into the same error. is it resolved?

This project is undergoing a major revamp; closing out old issues as part of the prep process.

The chatgpt package is pretty outdated at this point. I recommend that you use the openai package or the openai-fetch package instead.
