Image Types and Examples

Understanding when to use what image types is going to be critical to your ability to
write good prompts that pass requirements! Without a great grounding image, your
prompt will get much harder to write.
*Regardless of what language the
image text is in, your prompt and
response should always be in the
locale’s language.

papers)
(e.g., printed articles, manuals, invoices,
forms, event posters, flyers, menus,
receipts, schedules)
What makes it bad:
Though the image is of documents, the
photo is both too small and blurry to
read or glean context from. The goal is
to be able to provide an understanding
of what’s on the document in this type
of image.

Screenshots (mobile/desktop) Text Heavy Local Language


(e.g., app interfaces, website pages, chat
conversations, social media feeds)

Though these are both screenshots,


the latter doesn’t have any text content
that you could use as a basis for a
prompt. Screenshots should have a

reasonable amount of text in them to


refer to.

Graphs and Charts Text Heavy Local Language


(bar charts, pie charts, line graphs, scatter
plots, statistical diagrams)

Though these are both charts showing


stock growth, the latter doesn’t have
any text content that you could use as
a basis for a prompt. Also, there is no
localization that is easily applicable to
the second chart, making it hard to
relate back to your region. This isn’t a
“failing” example, but it’s not good.

Handwritten notes Text Heavy Local Language


(diaries, meeting notes, personal letters,
to-do lists)

This image has some text, but not


enough to make it “text heavy”. While
it does look hand-drawn, it’s also been
done on a computer, probably in an art
software. It would be better to have
something that is physically written
down!
Understanding Image Types, Text Load, and Text Language

Image Type Text Load Possible Text Languages* Good Example Bad Example

Art and Illustrations Text Heavy Local Language


(paintings, digital art, drawings,
illustrations, cartoons, memes)

Scene texts Text Heavy Local Language


(e.g., signboards, billboards, street signs,
store fronts, product packaging and logos)

This is a “scene” from a movie, but


that’s not what is meant by “scene” in
this scenario. Aim for text-heavy
instances of signs, shops, logos,
products, etc.

Places and Landscapes Text Free/Text Light Language specification unnecessary


(landmarks, natural scenes, street views)

Not an actual landscape or one that is


recognizably able to be localized to any
region.

Faces and people Text Free/Text Light Language specification unnecessary


(portraits, group photos, people in various
activities, facial expressions)

Though there are people in the photo,


you can’t clearly see their faces or
individuality, activities, etc. This
category focuses more on people and
their activities than large crowds of
people.

Foods Text Free/Text Light Language specification unnecessary


(ingredients, meals, menus, etc)

There is text in the photo, but not so


much that it overwhelms the image.
A recipe for a great cookie, but there
are no images of food here, and it’s all
text.

Daily objects Text Free/Text Light Language specification unnecessary


(e.g., electronic devices, vehicles, toys,
kitchen utensils)

These objects aren’t really “daily” for


most people, they’re specialized. The
text is a little heavier than ideal.

Indoor environments Text Free/Text Light Language specification unnecessary


(living rooms, offices, kitchens, classrooms)

“Okay” photo: While this is indoors in


an office, the focus of the photo is more
on the people than the environment
itself, so it would be less ideal than a
picture with more focus on the space.

Media and Entertainment Text Free/Text Light Language specification unnecessary


(e.g., movies, tv shows, celebrity, sports,
games)

Though music is a type of media and


entertainment, we’re looking for more
specifically pop-culture references and
live entertainment style pictures here.

Animals and Pets Text Free/Text Light Language specification unnecessary


(pets, animals in nature, bugs, livestock,

We’re looking for real-life animal

Localization Tips

Localize Like Your Mom is Watching

One of the most amazing things about LLMs is their ability to localize to be more relevant to
the user! We want to get even better at that, and the best way to do it is create great localized
examples.

It’s CRITICAL to this project to localize every task!


A Prompt/Response DOESN’T NEED to have every element of great localization, usually one or
two will do. However, it should always have at least one thing that flags it as specific to that
locale.
●​ For prompts, this can be a question that would generate a response differently for
YOUR locale than it would for another similar locale. It can also be locally-specific
language, slang, or references that a native would know.
●​ For responses, this means response content and references that do not clash with the
locale, and whenever possible include specific references that anchor the user to that
place. The response should give a some indication that it knows where you are,
locale-wise!

Elements of Great Localization

Feature Description Examples

Localized word choice / grammar / Can be slang or word choices specific “Car” in French (France) = Voiture​

🚒Bad Responses
A bad response is a response that
1)​ does not follow the prompt,
2)​ includes harmful or personally identifying information, or
3)​ is untrue
4)​ looks too similar to LLM output.

What makes an LLM response identifiable? Aren’t we supposed to be


making responses for an LLM?
While we are writing for LLM improvement, knowing some of the
shortcomings of current LLM responses can help you know what
needs to be avoided going forward.

You will see that they are often:


●​ Too long and verbose - is comprehensive (covering everything) instead of being clear
●​ Does not deliver a ‘so-what’ for the customer - it lacks meaning and favors delivering
an exhaustive list
○​ For example, the text below is correct, but it forces the user to figure out the
answer for themselves and read through a large number of alternatives
●​ Is often not focused and consistent, with bullet points that are inconsistent or
repetitive/overlap between topics

AVOIDING LLM Responses


LLM Responses are sometimes very predictable. Do not write like this:
●​ Pleasantries in the introduction: “Of course, I’d be happy to!”
●​ Prompt repetition: “Here are 10 places to see on vacation:”
●​ 8+ top-level bullet points
●​ Summary Pleasantries: “I hope you enjoy your trip!”
Example LLM-style Response:
This is a VERY bad example. Here’s what’s missing:
●​ Structure: There’s no point to these, they’re just long lists of items
●​ Meaning: The bullet points in the response don’t really tie together. They’re just loosely
related things to think about

In der Astrologie spielen die Planeten eine zentrale Rolle bei der Bestimmung der
Persönlichkeitsmerkmale eines Menschen. Jeder Planet repräsentiert verschiedene Aspekte des
Lebens und der menschlichen Psyche. Hier ist ein detaillierter Überblick über die wichtigsten
Planeten und ihre astrologische Bedeutung:
​ Sonne:
​ Bedeutung: Die Sonne symbolisiert das Selbst, das Ego und den grundlegenden
Charakter eines Menschen. Sie steht für Vitalität, Individualität und das innere Wesen.
​ Auswirkung: Die Position der Sonne im Horoskop gibt Hinweise auf die grundlegenden
Persönlichkeitszüge und das zentrale Anliegen im Leben. Ein stark positionierte Sonne
kann zu Selbstbewusstsein und Führungsqualitäten führen.
​ Mond:
​ Bedeutung: Der Mond repräsentiert die Emotionen, das Unterbewusstsein und das
Bedürfnis nach Sicherheit und Geborgenheit.
​ Auswirkung: Die Mondposition zeigt, wie eine Person ihre Gefühle ausdrückt und
verarbeitet. Ein sensibler Mond kann auf eine einfühlsame und intuitive Persönlichkeit
hinweisen.
​ Merkur:
