Effective Prompting
Write prompts that get you a useful answer the first time, and fix the ones that miss.
What you will learn
- Say exactly what you want6 minThe AI fills in whatever you leave out. Hand it the specifics only you know and the answer snaps into focus.
- Context, constraints, and examples7 minGiving the model your situation, your limits, and one example steers it far more than more instructions.
- Iterate, do not restart6 minFix a near-miss by adjusting one thing at a time instead of rewriting the whole prompt.
