Is AI Translator safe?

Medium risk

AI Translator sends text you ask it to translate to OpenAI with a bundled API credential.

When you use the popup translation feature, the background script posts the submitted text to OpenAI's chat completions API. The request includes a hardcoded bearer credential shipped with the extension, and the text is placed in the chat message content.
