This article discusses building a robust adapter for interacting with the OpenAI API, emphasizing error handling and model configuration flexibility. It argues that successful API calls alone do not guarantee resilience, and instead, developers should anticipate and handle predictable failures like API errors and model changes. The author proposes an adapter pattern that isolates API-specific logic, allowing application code to focus on core functionality while the adapter manages error classification and configuration updates, using the `openai-python` library's built-in exception hierarchy.
