PromptDiff

PromptDiff is a simple web tool that helps you see how changing your instructions to an AI affects its responses. It looks beyond just the words you change to understand how those changes might alter the AI's behavior, which can impact things like cost, how reliable its answers are, and its safety.

Benefits

PromptDiff helps you understand the real effects of your prompt edits. It shows you how changes can influence the AI's confidence, its tone, and the rules it follows. It also gives a risk score from 0 to 10, highlighting potential problems like the AI being too sure of itself or not following instructions well. Prompts are then placed into risk categories like Low, Moderate, or High to show how likely they are to cause the AI to go off track or make things up. You can also see how your edits affect the cost and speed of the AI's responses.

Use Cases

This tool is useful for anyone working with AI prompts. It helps in designing safer prompts, reducing the chances of the AI making up information, understanding how specific instructions guide the AI's actions, and making more thoughtful changes to prompts.

Vibes

PromptDiff was created because many tools treat AI instructions like simple text. However, PromptDiff recognizes that even small changes to prompts can have big consequences, similar to how small code changes can affect a program. This approach helps users create more dependable and safer AI interactions.

Additional Information

PromptDiff is built using FastAPI and Jinja2 and has a clean, easy-to-use web interface. The project is available under the MIT license.
