优化使用模式
一、什么是 Token?
Token 定义
Token 是文本的基本单位,大约相当于 4 个字符或 0.75 个英文单词。
"Hello world" → 2 tokens
"你好世界" → 4 tokens
"ChatGPT is amazing!" → 5 tokens
计费方式
- • 输入 Token: 你发送的内容
- • 输出 Token: AI 生成的内容
- • 计费单位: 每 1K tokens
- • 价格差异: 输出比输入贵 2-4 倍
💡 Token 限制
GPT-4o: 128K tokens
Claude 3.5: 200K tokens
GPT-3.5: 16K tokens
二、Token 精确计算
计算工具
import tiktoken
class TokenCounter:
def __init__(self):
self.encoders = {
"gpt-4": tiktoken.encoding_for_model("gpt-4"),
"gpt-3.5-turbo": tiktoken.encoding_for_model("gpt-3.5-turbo")
}
def count_tokens(self, text: str, model: str = "gpt-4") -> int:
encoding = self.encoders.get(model, tiktoken.get_encoding("cl100k_base"))
return len(encoding.encode(text))
def count_messages_tokens(self, messages: list, model: str = "gpt-4") -> int:
encoding = self.encoders.get(model)
tokens_per_message = 3
num_tokens = 0
for message in messages:
num_tokens += tokens_per_message
for key, value in message.items():
num_tokens += len(encoding.encode(value))
num_tokens += 3 # 结束标记
return num_tokens
# 使用示例
counter = TokenCounter()
text = "Hello, how can I help you?"
tokens = counter.count_tokens(text)
print(f"Token数: {tokens}")
# 成本计算
def estimate_cost(input_tokens: int, output_tokens: int, model: str = "gpt-4o"):
pricing = {
"gpt-4o": {"input": 0.0025, "output": 0.01},
"gpt-4o-mini": {"input": 0.00015, "output": 0.0006}
}
cost = (input_tokens * pricing[model]["input"] +
output_tokens * pricing[model]["output"]) / 1000
return cost💰 成本参考
| 模型 | 输入价格 | 输出价格 |
|---|---|---|
| GPT-4o | $2.5/M | $10/M |
| GPT-4o mini | $0.15/M | $0.6/M |
三、提示词优化
智能压缩
class PromptOptimizer:
def compress_prompt(self, prompt: str, max_tokens: int = 1000) -> str:
# 1. 移除冗余词汇
redundant_words = ["please", "could you", "I would like"]
for word in redundant_words:
prompt = prompt.replace(word, "")
# 2. 使用缩写
abbreviations = {
"for example": "e.g.",
"that is": "i.e.",
"et cetera": "etc."
}
for full, abbr in abbreviations.items():
prompt = prompt.replace(full, abbr)
# 3. 精简指令
if "请详细分析" in prompt:
prompt = prompt.replace("请详细分析", "分析")
return prompt.strip()
# 优化示例
original = "Please could you analyze this text in detail"
optimized = PromptOptimizer().compress_prompt(original)
# 结果: "analyze this text"优化技巧
- • 删除礼貌用语
- • 使用缩写
- • 精简指令
- • 去除冗余
优化效果
平均节省 30-50% tokens
保持语义不变
提高响应速度
四、缓存策略
智能缓存
import hashlib
from datetime import datetime, timedelta
class TokenCache:
def __init__(self):
self.cache = {}
self.stats = {"hits": 0, "misses": 0, "tokens_saved": 0}
def get_key(self, prompt: str, model: str) -> str:
content = f"{prompt}:{model}"
return hashlib.md5(content.encode()).hexdigest()
def get(self, prompt: str, model: str):
key = self.get_key(prompt, model)
if key in self.cache:
entry = self.cache[key]
if datetime.now() < entry["expires"]:
self.stats["hits"] += 1
self.stats["tokens_saved"] += entry["tokens"]
return entry["response"]
self.stats["misses"] += 1
return None
def set(self, prompt: str, model: str, response: str, tokens: int):
key = self.get_key(prompt, model)
self.cache[key] = {
"response": response,
"tokens": tokens,
"expires": datetime.now() + timedelta(hours=24)
}五、智能分块
文档分块
def smart_chunk_text(text: str, max_tokens: int = 1500):
"""智能文本分块"""
sentences = text.split('.')
chunks = []
current_chunk = []
current_tokens = 0
for sentence in sentences:
sentence_tokens = count_tokens(sentence + '.')
if current_tokens + sentence_tokens > max_tokens:
chunks.append('.'.join(current_chunk) + '.')
current_chunk = [sentence]
current_tokens = sentence_tokens
else:
current_chunk.append(sentence)
current_tokens += sentence_tokens
if current_chunk:
chunks.append('.'.join(current_chunk) + '.')
return chunks六、实际应用
文档处理
# 实际应用:文档总结优化
def optimized_document_summary(document: str):
# 1. 检查缓存
cached = cache.get(document[:100], "summary")
if cached:
return cached
# 2. 计算token
tokens = counter.count_tokens(document)
if tokens < 2000:
# 直接处理
summary = process_with_api(document)
else:
# 分块处理
chunks = smart_chunk_text(document)
summaries = []
for chunk in chunks:
# 优化每块的提示词
prompt = f"总结: {chunk}"
optimized = optimizer.compress_prompt(prompt)
summaries.append(process_with_api(optimized))
# 合并总结
summary = merge_summaries(summaries)
# 3. 缓存结果
cache.set(document[:100], "summary", summary, tokens)
