Ser, do you have a question?

I have never written a line of python in my life... have only opened the terminal a few times...

Feed all of that into ChatGPT and ask it to help you troubleshoot.

FWIW - I was having issues with the program recognizing my .env file... so I just set my API keys locally in the terminal with the export command.

export OPENAPI_API_KEY="your key"

etc... do that for Pinecone api key and pinecone environment.

[Ishansharma303]

luckily I figured out what was wrong, my env file was converting into a different extension, it is resolved now but it came up with a new error
I guess you're struggling with the same issue, found any solution?

[mmckillen]

Nice. Yeah same issue here. I'm wondering if it's gpt3.5 vs 4. I don't have access to 4 right now and still working on getting it to force 3.5 (not even sure it would work).

Maybe see if you can force 3.5 in your file (assuming you also are not using gpt4)

[Ishansharma303]

do you have a subscription for 3.5 turbo?
just got to know it ain't free.

[Ishansharma303]

It's working now
just have to set up payment methods in billing at Openai
