1. Check your Internet connection: A poor internet connection could cause a delay or failure in API response.
1. Retry the request: Sometimes, a temporary server issue may cause a delay, so try again after some time.
1. Check OpenAI Status Page: You can check the OpenAI status page (https://status.openai.com/) to see if there are any known issues or maintenance windows that might be causing the problem.
