TypeError: object ImagesResponse can't be used in 'await' expression

[Showdown76py]

With AsyncOpenAI, openai.images.generate does not work correctly when it is used with await, but it works without await. This seems to work perfectly in NodeJS, but not here in Python.

Example code:

response = await openai.images.generate(
    model="dall-e-3",
    prompt=prompt,
    n=1,
    quality="hd",
    response_format="b64_json",
    size=("792x1024"
)

And here is the traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "app.py", line 83, in dall_e
    response = await openai.images.generate(
               ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
TypeError: object ImagesResponse can't be used in 'await' expression

By removing await, it works correctly, but it is obviously not running asynchronously.

Can you share a full code snippet? I suspect you're using the module level client.

The method is defined with async so it should be impossible to not use await. https://github.com/openai/openai-python/blob/main/src/openai/resources/images.py#L438

You were right! I used openai instead of the client. Thank you!
