Anthropic adds new feature to help developers improve prompts

Anthropic is making it easier for developers to leverage best practices of prompt engineering by adding a feature for improving prompts and allowing example responses to be managed within the Anthropic Console

According to Anthropic, while prompt quality is important, it can be time-consuming to implement best practices, and those best practices might also vary between different model providers. With this new prompt improver feature, Anthropic is giving developers the ability to take existing prompts — either new ones or previous prompts written for other models — and refine them using Claude.

The prompt improver uses a variety of methods to improve prompts, such as chain-of-thought reasoning, which adds a dedicated section where Claude can systematically think through prompts before responding; example standardization, where examples are converted into XML format for overall consistency; example enrichment, where existing examples are augmented using chain-of-thought reasoning; rewriting of prompts to correct grammatical issues; and prefill addition, where the Assistant message is prefilled to direct Claude’s actions and enforce a certain output format.

Then, once Claude generates the new prompt, the user can also provide feedback about what specifically works or doesn’t work, which improves the prompt even further. 

Anthropic’s early testing has shown the prompt improver increasing accuracy by 30% on a multi-label classification task and bringing word count adherence to 100% on a summarization task. 

In addition, developers can now manage output examples in the Workbench, which is another way that response quality can be improved. “This makes it easier to add new examples with clear input/output pairs or edit existing examples to refine response quality,” Anthropic wrote in a post

Developers can also use the prompt evaluator to determine how the improved prompt performs under different scenarios. The company has now added an “ideal output” column in the Evaluations tabs to help developers assess outputs on a 5-point scale.

“These features make it easier to leverage prompt engineering best practices and build more reliable AI applications,” Anthropic wrote.

Difference between Web Designer and Web Developer Neeraj Mishra The Crazy Programmer

Have you ever wondered about the distinctions between web developers’ and web designers’ duties and obligations? You’re not alone! Many people have trouble distinguishing between these two. Although they collaborate to publish new websites on the internet, web developers and web designers play very different roles. To put these job possibilities into perspective, consider the construction of a house. To create a vision for the house, including the visual components, the space planning and layout, the materials, and the overall appearance and sense of the space, you need an architect. That said, to translate an idea into a building, you need construction professionals to take those architectural drawings and put them into practice. Image Source In a similar vein, web development and design work together to create websites. Let’s examine the major responsibilities and distinctions between web developers and web designers. Let’s get going, shall we? What Does a Web Designer Do?

2022: The year of hybrid work

Remote work was once considered a luxury to many, but in 2020, it became a necessity for a large portion of the workforce, as the scary and unknown COVID-19 virus sickened and even took the lives of so many people around the world.  Some workers were able to thrive in a remote setting, while others felt isolated and struggled to keep up a balance between their work and home lives. Last year saw the availability of life-saving vaccines, so companies were able to start having the conversation about what to do next. Should they keep everyone remote? Should they go back to working in the office full time? Or should they do something in between? Enter hybrid work, which offers a mix of the two. A Fall 2021 study conducted by Google revealed that over 75% of survey respondents expect hybrid work to become a standard practice within their organization within the next three years.  Thus, two years after the world abruptly shifted to widespread adoption of remote work, we are declaring 20
