Fix RateLimitError

in Instructor

Solution

RateLimitError in instructor usually arises from exceeding the API's usage limits, such as requests per minute. Implement retry mechanisms with exponential backoff and jitter to space out requests, also check your current API usage and consider upgrading your API plan if necessary to allow for higher limits. Furthermore, optimize your prompts to be more efficient in fewer API calls.
