Instagram Bot with Python and OpenAI: Full Project Tutorial

Learning Python from syntax drills gets boring fast — building a real project doesn't. In this tutorial you'll build a Python bot from scratch that uses the OpenAI API to write its own image prompts, generate AI art, and post it to Instagram on a schedule, learning classes, virtual environments, libraries, APIs, and time-based loops along the way.

⚠️ Instagrapi is an unofficial library. Automating an Instagram account this way may violate Instagram's Terms of Use and can lead to restrictions or bans — test on a throwaway account and use at your own risk. The OpenAI library and image models have changed since recording, so code may need updating. This course is independent and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Instagram, Meta, or OpenAI. For educational purposes only.
