I'm trying to import openai, however it keeps throwing the error module not found. I have done pip install openai and it downloads, but it appears to be the wrong version of python. How do I select the correct one for pip to install to? I am using VSCode

pip install openai

CodePudding user response：

Try using pip3 install openai, as it installs openai for python3, not python2 (if you have it installed). If you only have python3, pip and pip3 are basically the same thing (I think).

CodePudding user response：

Follow the steps below to install the openai package for the current interpreter

1. run the following code

   import sys
   print(sys.executable)
   

2. get the current interpreter path

   

3. Copy the path and install openai using the following command in the terminal

   C:\WorkSpace\pytest10\.venv\Scripts\python.exe -m pip install openai
   

   Modify the path in the above command to the interpreter path you got.
