RateLimitError: That model is currently overloaded with other requests

API

Hi, I am using a pay account but keep getting the following error -

RateLimitError: That model is currently overloaded with other requests. You can retry your request, or contact us through our help center at help.openai.com if the error persists. (Please include the request ID 55f781b768b2b5c44611fa0995748014 in your message.)

I tried to run my code in different times and hours but it is not helping me.
Although my account is open to $120 and I got only to $12 usage.
What can I do to solve it?

Ask everyone nicely to stop using the model :slight_smile:

But seriously, you’ll want to implement a backoff, probably exponential. Eg: sleep(X+tries^k) seconds, before trying again. X = 5, k=2 is probably good to start with, but tune as you see fit.

thank you for your reply.
I added it but it didn’t help.
I tried to run my code at night and weekend.
I had one “good” run with 18K results but since then I am just getting the RateLimitError.
Is there any chance it is something else? or anything else I can do?

I am not aware of anything else that can be done here, though perhaps someone else might know.
