Exactprep AIF-C01 Questions

The temperature parameter in a large language model (LLM) controls the randomness of the model's output. A lower temperature value makes the output more deterministic and consistent, meaning that the model is less likely to produce different results for the same input prompt.

Option A (Correct): "Decrease the temperature value": This is the correct answer because lowering the temperature reduces the randomness of the responses, leading to more consistent outputs for the same input.

Option B: "Increase the temperature value" is incorrect because it would make the output more random and less consistent.

Option C: "Decrease the length of output tokens" is incorrect as it does not directly affect the consistency of the responses.

Option D: "Increase the maximum generation length" is incorrect because this adjustment affects the output length, not the consistency of the model’s responses.

AWS AI Practitioner References:

Understanding Temperature in Generative AI Models: AWS documentation explains that adjusting the temperature parameter affects the model’s output randomness, with lower values providing more consistent outputs.

Chain-of-thought prompting is a prompt engineering technique where you instruct the model to explain its reasoning step by step, which is particularly useful for tasks involving logic, math, or reasoning.

A is correct: Asking the model to "explain its reasoning step by step" directly invokes chain-of-thought prompting, as documented in AWS and generative AI literature.

B is unrelated (prompt injection is a security concern).

C (few-shot) provides examples, but doesn’t specifically require step-by-step reasoning.

D (templating) is about structuring the prompt format.

"Chain-of-thought prompting elicits step-by-step explanations from LLMs, which improves performance on complex reasoning tasks."
