The art and science of crafting inputs to AI models to get the best possible outputs.
The art and science of crafting inputs to AI models to get the best possible outputs. Techniques include system prompts, few-shot examples, chain-of-thought reasoning, and role-playing. A surprisingly impactful skill — the same model can give wildly different results depending on how you ask.
The text input you give to an AI model to direct its behavior.
A prompting technique where you ask an AI model to show its reasoning step by step before giving a final answer.
The ability of a model to learn a new task from just a handful of examples, often provided in the prompt itself.
A mathematical function applied to a neuron's output that introduces non-linearity into the network.
An optimization algorithm that combines the best parts of two other methods — AdaGrad and RMSProp.
