Multiple Choice

A company is developing an automated system to classify thousands of customer support emails per day into one of three categories: 'Urgent', 'Standard', or 'Spam'. They are considering two prompting strategies for their large language model.

  • Strategy X: For each email, the system sends a long prompt that includes a detailed, 200-word definition of each category, several examples, and the full text of the customer email.
  • Strategy Y: For each email, the system sends a short prompt containing only a brief instruction ('Classify this email:') and the full text of the customer email.

From a computational cost perspective, which strategy is the most suitable for this high-volume, repetitive task, and why?
