Português(PT) Evalúa prompts como sistemas, no como trucos

AI prompts should be treated as software, not tricks, for better evaluation

This article advocates for treating prompts in AI systems not as isolated tricks but as components of a software system with defined inputs, outputs, and boundaries. It proposes a layered architecture separating contract definitions, evaluation examples, and execution prompts to manage ambiguity and ensure reproducibility. The author suggests designing intentional failure cases, including adversarial and regression tests, and implementing a minimal evaluation framework that tracks changes between prompt versions for better engineering and decision-making. AI

IMPACT Promotes a more robust and reproducible approach to prompt engineering, crucial for reliable AI application development.

RANK_REASON The article provides an opinion and methodology for prompt engineering, not a release or significant industry event.

    Evaluate prompts as systems, not as tricks

    <p>Un prompt que funciona hoy puede fallar mañana por un cambio de modelo, de contexto o de datos. El problema no suele ser que el texto esté “mal escrito”. Es que lo tratamos como un truco aislado, cuando en realidad es una pieza de software con entradas, salidas y límites.</p> …
