Prompt Engineering with ChatGPT
ChatGPT Word Choice
When defining a Generative AI prompt, it is essential to use clear, straightforward language. Confusing and unusual word choices may result in output that is incorrect or not what a user is looking for.
Instead of:
My team is interested in X, tell me about that
Consider:
Provide a summary of X, including its history, features, and configuration.
ChatGPT Tone, Format, and Audience
Defining a clear purpose for a prompt can assist in getting useful results. Think about:
Tone: How do you want the output to sound? Funny? Professional?
Format: How do you want the output structured? Bullet list? Paragraph? An essay?
Audience: Who is this for? Do you want something for children? Beginners? Experts?
ChatGPT Prompt Context
Providing context to ChatGPT can each help in creating a more useful response. Context includes:
- Background information
- Specific Requirements
- Constraints
