What is the Best First AI Project for Beginners to OpenAI API?
OpenAI Developer Community
June 2, 2026
I’d start learning how to use a jupyter notebook, because delegating everything to AI will not give a minimal insight on how things work.
A jupyter notebook will allow to freely explore how to call the API, inspect the returning json objects and variables as you run things step by step.
Quick start: install python and vs code (with jupyter extension), then follow the already mentioned quickstart guide and cookbooks.
