Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "E:\python\openAI\openai.py", line 2, in <module>
    import openai
  File "E:\python\openAI\openai.py", line 9, in <module>
    response = openai.Completion.create(
AttributeError: partially initialized module 'openai' has no attribute 'Completion' (most likely due to a circular import)
Solution

  • for my fellow doofuses going thru all the above suggestions and wondering why its not working:

    make sure your file is NOT named openai.py. because then it will call itself, because python.

    wasted 2 hours on this nonsense lol.
