Confirm this is a Node library issue and not an underlying OpenAI API issue

• This is an issue with the Node library

Describe the bug

Since version 4.62.1, when I build a TypeScript project which includes openai, I get this error message:

src/node_modules/openai/_shims/node-types.d.ts:10:32 - error TS2307: Cannot find module 'node:stream/web' or its corresponding type declarations.

10 export { ReadableStream } from 'node:stream/web';
                                  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Found 1 error in src/node_modules/openai/_shims/node-types.d.ts:10

It does not occur on version 4.62.0 and below.

To Reproduce

1. Create a TypeScript project using the below tsconfig.json
2. yarn add openai
3. yarn build
