Namaste and Welcome to Build It Yourself.

DSPy framework is slowly replacing (if not killing) “Prompt Engineering”.

The most annoying part of making an LLM application is coming up with a good prompt. It takes hours (sometimes days) to create a suitable prompt.

And when things change like a model change, the prompt starts breaking.

What if the framework changes its prompt as the model changes?

This is exactly what DSPy does.

In this tutorial, let’s create a small LLM application that will simplify any AI concept for you in simple language and show how DSPy comes up with its own prompt for that application.

DSPy framework: Prompts through Programming

In this article, let’s build a basic LLM tool which we can name as “Simple AI Teacher”

Why this name, you ask?

The tool will explain any AI topic in simple English. However, the idea is not that.

What we will explore is how DSPy framework comes up with kits own prompt to do so. We will also change the model and see whether the prompt gets changed or not.

You can find the code notebook here – https://github.com/tayaln/DSpy-framework-demo

To use it, download and then upload it to your Google Drive and open it as a Google Colab file.
