What’s the difference between chat.completions.create and chat.completions.parse? I saw parse used in the structured outputs introduction but it’s unclear to me what actually is being parsed and when to use create vs parse.

If you see closely, chat.completions.create returns response object containing the model’s generated reply, however to get fine control you can use parse method, which has also parameter ```
response_format
it will give you fine control over format and also if you want to Extract specific data, or format response.
