Practical Tips for Developers

1. Iterative Prompt Refinement: If a response is unsatisfactory, refine the prompt. Consider adding specific details to guide the model.
  - Initial Prompt: “Tell me about animals.”
  - Refined Prompt: “Describe the habits of African elephants.”
2. Temperature Adjustment: Experiment with the temperature setting of the LLM to control the randomness of responses. Lower temperatures yield more predictable outputs, while higher temperatures increase creativity.
3. Use of System Instructions: Where applicable, use system-level instructions to steer the LLM toward generating the type of output you desire (e.g., “Answer in bullet points.”).
