Questions about api interface calls

There are 2 different ways to call the openai interface:


Do the two calls end up returning the same object?Since I’ve changed the way I call the api in my program, but don’t want to change the rest of the code in the program, is there a way to make the returned objects the same.
The first object returned by calling the method is this: message = response[‘choices’][0][‘message’].

You can get a similar data object back by using the .model_dump() method on the class object (pydantic model with various objects within) the new library returns.

However it is perhaps a quicker typing to just write response.choices[0].message.content (or .tool_call, etc) and use the native methods.
