Understanding Prompt Engineering

Prompt engineering is a critical aspect of utilizing generative AI effectively. It involves crafting specific questions and instructions that serve as the foundation for generating content from AI models. This process does not demand coding expertise, but rather requires a clear understanding of the information desired and the context in which it is to be applied. Different types of prompts, such as direct, role, and chain of thought prompting, guide the AI to produce desired outputs by tailoring the interaction to fit various communication needs.
