PermissionDeniedError: Error code: 403 - {'error': {'message': 'You are not allowed to sample from this model'

Hi
Im trying to use an embedding model in colab (text-embedding-3-small, but it doesnt work with others either) I put 5 dollars in my account to use it and still sends this error, anyone know what could it be?

Welcome to the Community!


Hmm - are you using it correctly?

https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/embeddings/how-to-get-embeddings

you typically get this error when you try to use an embedding model as a completion model (or the other way round?)

Hi! thanks for replying
I was following a tutorial so I think I a, here’s the code:
def response_query(db, query, k):
docs = db.similarity_search(query,k=k)
docs_page_content = " ".join([d.page_content for d in docs])

llm = OpenAI(model=“text-embedding-3-small”,
openai_api_key=key)

prompt = PromptTemplate(
input_variables=[“question”,“docs”],
template = “”"

)

chain = LLMChain(llm=llm, prompt=prompt)

response = chain.run(question=query, docs=docs_page_content)
response = response.replace(“\n”,“”)
return response

the model the guy in the tutorial was using is text-davinci-003 but I think that one is no longer available

text davinci 003 is/was a completion model, although there was an embedding variant of that too.

you probably want completions instead : https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/completions

gpt-3.5-turbo-instruct

unless the error came from

docs = db.similarity_search(query,k=k)

but then we’d need to see how that is set up.

oh my god it worked with the gpt-3.5-turbo-instruct thank you so much
I didnt know about the completion model I just started learning this stuff

again thank for the solution and for your quick reply
