It took some iterations but I've managed to get the OpenAI API to give me valid JSON 100% of the time now(based on my testing). I think I put in the prompt to never use newlines because it was causing issues lol.
I love donkeys. IMO they are the most underrated animal in terms of cuteness, They are easily S-tier. My dream is to run a Free-Open-Source-Software incubator/commune that also has donkeys.
