Prompt Engineering

What’s the prompt? It’s simply a question or instruction. A prompt is the art of communicating with AI models to get a desired output. The clearer and more detailed the prompt, the better the response. The more specific and thorough you are, the more accurately the task will be completed.

Prompt requires 3 things:

  1. Context – the material to be worked on.
  2. Role – you and your role (who you are and what you do).
  3. Expectation – the desired material to be generated.

Example of crafting promps:

  1. Okay:
    • “Can you help me understand the current trends in global markets?”
  2. Better (+context and role):
    • I am a Business Analyst at Abc Co exploring global market trends. Can you help me understand the key trends across industries and regions?”
  3. Best (+expectation):
    • “I am a Business Analyst at Abc Co exploring global market trends. Can you help me understand the major trends impacting global markets, focusing specifically on how technological advancements and geopolitical shifts are influencing vatius industries? Please highlight the key trends, assess their potential risks, and identify any challenges organizations might face in adapting their strategies to these changes.
