Yes, we need to do this.

I'll include it in the next patch version, 0.3.3. Planned for ~12 Jan.

Proto objects can be converted with type(obj).to_dict(obj) but GenerateContentResponse is not a proto class, it's a python wrapper.

All our python classes should have a standard method for converting to a json.

Do we have any workaround to achieve this until this is not available in a library?
