Sample questions
Three original questions from the bank, with their explanations.
A new assistant needs tools and memory between turns.
Tidewater is starting a new support chat on an OpenAI reasoning model. The model must call a product lookup function, keep the conversation across turns without the app resending every earlier message, and carry its reasoning from one turn to the next.
Which API should the team build on?
Choose an answer
A ticket router must label 40,000 short messages a day.
Each message gets one of six fixed labels. The current general LLM is accurate but adds about two seconds per message, and the finance team wants the cost per message cut. An offline test shows a smaller model reaching the same accuracy on 500 labeled messages.
Which model choice fits best?
Choose an answer
The banner prompt returns a paragraph.
A developer sends "Draw a banner of a tent on a beach" to Tidewater's chat deployment through the Responses API, and gets back a written description of a banner. The marketing site needs a PNG file it can show.
