1Z0-1127-25 Prompt Engineering Practice Question

During iterative prompt refinement, a team evaluates two prompt variants on 100 test queries. Variant A scores 85% accuracy but occasionally generates offensive content. Variant B scores 80% accuracy with no safety issues. Which evaluation criterion should take priority for a customer-facing application?

Answer choices

Why each option matters

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.

Correct answer & explanation

Safety — offensive content is unacceptable in a customer-facing system

For customer-facing applications, safety is paramount. Even if accuracy is slightly lower, ensuring no offensive content is critical to avoid reputational and legal risks. The team should prioritize safety and then work to improve accuracy.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • Accuracy — because it is highest and the offensive content can be filtered post-hoc

    Why it's wrong here

    Post-hoc filtering is not foolproof and does not address the root cause. Safety must be built in.

  • Cost — the variant with higher accuracy uses fewer tokens

    Why it's wrong here

    Cost is secondary to safety and accuracy.

  • Safety — offensive content is unacceptable in a customer-facing system

    Why this is correct

    Safety is a hard requirement; accuracy can be improved through further refinement.

  • Latency — because the variant with higher accuracy also has lower latency

    Why it's wrong here

    Latency is not mentioned and safety is more critical.
