- throwawayadvsec 3y agogood idea just so you know the automated translations of your website are completely AWFUL maybe use GPT or deepl to translate it?
- brucethemoose2 3y agoWith an optimized prompt!
- throwaway888abc 3y agoYou rocks! Awesome idea/execution "You can't see the forest for the trees"

Prompts are not code, fine. But are you saying that you'll potentially make use of prompts provided by users?

- SheinhardtWigCo 3y agoIf a third party using your prompts is a significant risk then you're toast anyway.

- winddude 3y agoyes, 12 months ago jina was an open source semantic search tool, than a whole bunch of things, now a prompt optimizer and bunch of ai tools
- ReDeiPirati 3y ago+1 to this, I feel like they are in the middle of an existential crisis. They keep shipping out product after product each month now. I think that they are struggling quite a bit to meet investors' growth expectations.
- capableweb 3y agoHere is a prompt you can use to achieve the same thing directly in GPT4 without any extra services: I want you to become my prompt master creator, by helping me to create the best possible prompt. In order to do this we will follow the following process: - First, you ask me what the prompt is about. I will answer you, and we will go through the next step. - Based on the answer I gave you, you will generate the following: - An improved prompt, concise. - Relevant questions you might have to improve the quality of the prompt. - We will go through this process repeatedly, with me providing additional information to you, and you updating the prompt to improve it, until I say we are done.
- pigeons 3y agoFrom my experiments so far, I am unsure if chatgpt is effective at optimizing prompts, even though it thinks it is.
- capableweb 3y agoThe workflow you get with this is that it helps you to think about what you really want answered with the prompt. For example, latest try had this initial prompt: > How can I create collisions in Bevy and Rust? After 4-5 messages back and forth, I ended up with: > What is the most efficient method to implement 2D collision detection for a large number of constant-radius circles randomly distributed in Bevy and Rust without using third-party tools, focusing on detection only, without any unique properties or attributes affecting the detection process? Which is much more explicit and targeted to what I initially wanted to do, but didn't write. It ended up helping me implement a Quadtree solution which I don't have any experience with before, but overall it went smoothly.
- charcircuit 3y agoHow do you know that the prompt you got to is at least a local maximum? Would chancing "method" to "function" provide better results? Did you do any benchmarking?
- avidphantasm 3y agoThis whole apparatus makes me want to go completely offline. Maybe Kaczynski was right.
- jdthedisciple 3y agoYou know, I feel you. The reality of modern business and purpose is morphing into a caricature of itself.
- tallytarik 3y agoAside: I opened this in a new tab to browse later, then glanced over at the icon and wondered how I had opened a PayPal page.
- sebastiennight 3y agoI had the same problem. OP, your logo/favicon is a navy blue bold capitalized P superimposed on an electric blue P of the same size, slightly off to the lower right. This is extremely similar to the PayPal logo/favicon and could be problematic for your branding (I'm the second user who got confused just in this thread), or could even cause you legal issues.
- brucethemoose2 3y agoI wonder how it works under the hood. I'm sure there's an LLM somewhere, but is it as simple as a (very specific, elaborate) prompt for each service run through GPT4, or something more specific... like breaking it up with actual code and running the reconstructed bits through a finetuned LLM?
- nestorD 3y agoThe way I would do it (to be tweaked for each target LLM) is to give GPT4 a prompt telling it what kind of things make for a good prompt followed by a dozen of before/after examples (spanning various domains).
- klabb3 3y agoDamn it! I was just about to get promoted to senior prompt engineer and now they just automate my job. I worked so hard on reschooling myself from metaverse pixel ape designer, and now I’ll have to learn something new. Any suggestions?
- throwaway14356 3y agoyou asking people?
- semitones 3y agoI wish I could give this comment gold
- m3kw9 3y agoPrompts don’t write itself so you will need to, except maybe you don’t need to be so senior
- seanhunter 3y agoDon't dispair. There's still work out there for prompt optimizer prompt engineers, producing exceptional prompts for prompt optimizers to optimize. It's a little different from being a prompt engineer but you've shown the sort of flexibility that leads me to believe you could cross-train.
- bjornsing 3y agoGo back to the metaverse and complete the import of Zuck’s legs. You’ll make a billion dollars.
- lxe 3y agoThis is cool, but why does it require a login? I would guess it uses an LLM under the hood with a single-shot prompt to refine a given prompt.
- cosmojg 3y ago> but why does it require a login? $$$
- fatso784 3y agoNth time this week someone repackages a call to GPT4 as a way to improve/evaluate LLM outputs. Guys, just stop.
- gmerc 3y agoWell if you look at lexica.art, I don’t think the business is about repackaging GPt4, it’s about getting into the information flow because prompts are RHLF and in the end this is a case of faking it to make it
- ghotli 3y agoSince this is a Show HN, here's my immediate feedback from your homepage. The copy that ends with this sentence: 'Say goodbye to subpar AI-generated content and hello to prompt perfection with PromptPerfect!' feels overdone and like it's written by a prompt rather than a human. Since you claim in that copy to be able to optimize a prompt for a better output it felt like an odd dissonance to read that copy and have that reaction since your product claims to do the opposite. Hope this helps!
- m3kw9 3y agoCircular loop business, very direct. Use gpt to create better prompts and sell it.

- icelancer 3y agoActually pretty interesting. I got some good results with it for Midjourney. Huh. I'll use my free credits and evaluate afterwards.
- dpflan 3y agoWhy isn't this called "prompt-imization"? Maybe prompt-opt or opt-prompt is easier...
