Assistant Message
An assistant message is a response generated by the language model, often used as context for subsequent turns in a conversation. It becomes part of the history that shapes future outputs. For AI designers and analytics teams, assistant messages are both product and data: they reveal how prompts and system instructions perform, and they can be logged, evaluated, and iterated to improve message quality and conversion impact. An assistant message is a response generated by the language model that becomes part of the ongoing conversation history. Later replies can reference these messages as context. For AI designers and analysts, assistant messages are both the user-facing product and a rich source of telemetry that informs prompt refinements, safety reviews, and optimization experiments.
