Cannot upgrade to newest version of openai package

Hello, I am using python on an SSH server. there is both python 2.7.17 and python 3.6.9 installed, but i select the 3.6.9 as the interpreter. When I do pip show openai the version is 0.8.0. if i do pip install --upgrade openai and then check the version again it is still version 0.8.0. even if i uninstall openai and then reinstall it.

how do i get the newest version of openai installed?! when i use vscode on my personal machine and run the same code i can get openai version 1.3.6.

From the readme.md of the repo:

The OpenAI Python library provides convenient access to the OpenAI REST API from any Python 3.7+ application.

Sorry, but I don’t have better news for you.

Edit: you can still check if this is a solution for you:
