We got better results by following OpenAI's documentation.\n - We could make OpenAI node easier to work with for new users by the node inputs being oriented not to sending parameters to api but by following [their suggestions]({{ $env.WEBHOOK_URL }} - e.g. have a field for expected output format rather than just for prompt.\n- ↕️ **Changing the max_tokens parameter** drastically changes results - sometimes making it smaller even improves results (e.g. when you want a yes/no response in the OpenAI Classify node). In their [docs]({{ $env.WEBHOOK_URL }} they recommend using max_tokens>256 but [n8n by default]({{ $env.WEBHOOK_URL }} uses max_tokens=16. We should probably update this."
