Text completion

• Design quality prompt with instructions and examples

• Temperature 0 is deterministic for where there is one right answer, 1 is for when many different answers are preferred. Its not "creativity"

  OpenAI.completions(
    "davinci", # engine_id
    prompt: "once upon a time",
    max_tokens: 5,
    temperature: 1,
    ...

Prompt Examples

Conversation, notice we can give the AI assistant an identity

The following is a conversation with an AI assistant. The assistant is helpful, creative, clever, and very friendly.

Human: Hello, who are you?

Tips

• use max_tokens > 256

• Prefer finish_reason == "stop"

• Resampling 3-5 times with high temperature then pick samples that use stop as finish reason can be best

• Provide examples
