A developer is organizing the role of each component of a prompt. What is the name of the component that, like 'Human:' or 'Assistant:', indicates where the model's response begins and its format, that is, the start position and format of the output?

Explanation

Choosing the prompt component that indicates the response start position and format.

  • 1like 'Human:' or 'Assistant:'Indicates the delimiter/label of the response
  • 2indicates where the model's response begins and its formatSpecifying the response format = output indicator
ACorrect

Output indicator

Correct. An output indicator is a prompt component that, like 'Assistant:', indicates where and in what format the output should begin. It helps shape the format of the response.

BIncorrect

Instruction

An instruction is a component that tells the model what you want it to do.

It conveys the content of the task, not the start position and format of the output, so it is incorrect.

CIncorrect

Context

Context is a component that provides background, situation, and reference information.

It is not the specification of the output start position or format, so it is incorrect.

DIncorrect

System prompt

A system prompt is a component that defines tone, role, and policy in advance.

It defines the overall policy, not a marker that indicates where the response begins, so it is incorrect.

Key Takeaway

Identify the prompt components with a concrete example. Consider a prompt like this:
・'Classify the following review as positive/negative.' ← instruction (what you want done)
・'Review: This movie was the best' ← context (background/reference information)
・'Classification:' or 'Assistant:' ← output indicator (a marker showing where and in what format the output should begin)
The output indicator clarifies the response start position and format to shape the output. Learning rate, epochs, and checkpoints are 'training' terms, not prompt components.
