Session Goal

The session aimed to explore the concept of Prompt Runtime Contracts and their implications for AI systems, particularly in the context of PromptFlow and AI infrastructure.

Key Activities

  • Discussed the concept of a Prompt Runtime Contract, focusing on its role in ensuring observability, reproducibility, and modularity in AI systems.
  • Emphasized the lack of formal definitions and standards in prompt engineering, highlighting the need for clarity and minimalism in defining protocols for prompt pipelines.
  • Outlined a framework for Prompt Runtime Contracts, focusing on modularity, auditability, and reproducibility.
  • Structured a layered software architecture for the PromptFlow project, detailing components like the spec, Python library, FastAPI layer, and frontend interface.
  • Explored the startup potential of an AI infrastructure platform with a developer-native prompt runtime.
  • Developed a strategic approach for a lean protocol-layer business model for PromptFlow.

Achievements

  • Established a foundational understanding of Prompt Runtime Contracts and their importance in AI workflows.
  • Developed a conceptual framework for implementing these contracts in PromptFlow.
  • Identified potential business models and strategic approaches for a startup focusing on AI infrastructure.

Pending Tasks

  • Further research and development on formalizing Prompt Runtime Contracts.
  • Implementation of the proposed software architecture for PromptFlow.
  • Exploration of revenue streams and acquisition opportunities for the PromptFlow startup model.
