I’ve upgraded via pip and still get the same error.

You should change from openai.Completion.create to openai.ChatCompletion.create.

I was able to fix it by updating the openai lib.

pip install --upgrade openai.

Then you can try this:

import openai

completion = openai.ChatCompletion.create(
  model="gpt-3.5-turbo",
  messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Tell the world about the ChatGPT API in the style of a pirate."}]
)

I got the answer in the official documentation:

This error is expected if using openai.Completion.create with a chat model. Please use openai.ChatCompletion.create instead. This includes gpt-3.5-turbo and gpt-4 (for those with access).

This seems to be account related. Some accounts are affected while others are not.

I think they moved the endpoint for the new models. They also seemed to have updated the error…

openai.error.InvalidRequestError: This is a chat model and not supported in the v1/completions endpoint. Did you mean to use v1/chat/completions?

So the maybe the API needs to add ‘/chat’ for gpt-3.5-turbo and gpt-3.5-turbo-0301 models? The documentation looks like only those two are supported for ‘chat completion’ but doesn’t state that they are losing the normal endpoint. So 🤷🏻‍♀️

same issue in my case I have a loop that calls the api multiple times, bit backoff retry exception handling, and It only does it a few times, in the loop, but not on every one and it seems very unpredictable
