This is a command-line based chatbot application built in Python using the Google Gemini API (via Vertex AI). The chatbot responds to user queries in real-time, simulating a streaming-like response similar to ChatGPT.

• Real-time response to any user prompt.
• Simulates line-by-line typing using a streaming effect.
• Error handling for API rate limits and invalid inputs.
• Simple and clean command-line interface.
• Built with Google Cloud's Gemini 1.5 Pro model via Vertex AI.
