require "openai"
# Initialize an OpenAI API client with your API secret key
openai_client = OpenAI::Client.new(bearer_token: "sk-thats1smallStep4man1giantLeap4mankind")
# Retrieve a model instance
openai_client.get("models/gpt-4")
# {"id"=>"gpt-4", "object"=>"model", "created"=>1687882411, "owned_by"=>"openai"}
