. Prompting Tip .
Speak Their Language: New Prompting Language for AI Devs to Try
Looking to cut costs on LLM API calls? Check out Synthlang—a tool for optimizing prompts to use fewer tokens while preserving quality. Reuven Cohen recently posted on linkedin about a language he designed for LLMs. English is verbose, but by leveraging symbols, characters, and numbers, Cohen developed a language that can communicate with up to 90% fewer tokens (90% lower costs) and speeding up responses by up to 900%.
Any prompts you are using in API calls can be copied into the left panel, and then a “translated” prompt will appear on the right. While savings may look minimal on each prompt, they scale as the number of API calls being made scales.
