Summary
We have seen several tips for getting started with prompt engineering. For a quick recap:
Use clear, direct, and concise instructions
Try “complete this sentence” prompts for more natural responses
Use examples (few-shot learning) of the task
Align prompt instructions with a clear end goal
Use persona keywords to alter the style and voice of the response
Constrain the LLM’s responses by listing desired responses in the prompt
Experiment with variations of the prompt to see what works best for you!
Go on and start engineering prompts with these newfound skills and remember that if at first you don’t succeed, try and try (a different variation of a prompt) again!
