DESCRIPTION

OpenAPI::Client::OpenAI is a client for the OpenAI API built on top of OpenAPI::Client. This module automatically handles the API key authentication according to the provided environment.

Note that the OpenAI API is a paid service. You will need to sign up for an account.

See the examples/ directory in the distribution for more examples, along with the tests.

WARNING

Due to the extremely rapid development of OpenAI's API, this module may may not be up-to-date with the latest changes. Further releases of this module may break your code if OpenAI changes their API.
