Show Notes
If you are using systems prompts, chat completions, and tool completions with OpenAI, you might find it challenging to get the model to follow your prompts. If you are like the show hosts, you often find that there are certain instructions that your bot just refuses to listen to!
In the latest episode of The Prompt Desk, show host Bradley Arsenault shares with Justin Macorin the latest technique he has been using to improve the reliability of behaviours that the bot refuses to comply with.
That new technique is to add additional instructions in prompts mid-conversation using tool results. Instead of seeing a tool result as simply containing data, you should rethink your tool results as combining both data and a prompt on what the bot should do with that data. With this technique, your show hosts have improved the reliability of their bots significantly.
