Given a list of messages comprising a conversation, the model will return a response. [Official OpenAI Docs](https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/chat)

### `completions.create()`

Creates a model response for the given chat conversation. [Official OpenAI Docs](https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/chat/create)

```ts example.ts
await io.openai.chat.completions.create("chat-completion", {
  model: "gpt-3.5-turbo",
  messages: [
    {
      role: "user",
      content: "Create a good programming joke about background jobs",
    },
  ],
