Master the fundamental logic that governs all Large Language Models.
1Chain of Thought
Ask the AI to 'Think step-by-step' before giving the final answer. This forces it to verify its own logic, drastically reducing errors in complex tasks.
2Role Prompting
Always start with a persona. 'You are a Senior Growth Marketer with 15 years of experience.' This sets the appropriate vocabulary and perspective for the output.
3Iterative Refinement
Never settle for the first response. Use 'Negative Constraints' (e.g., 'Don't use the word synergy') to polish the output further.
4Step-by-Step Breakdown
Prompting is the art of giving context. AI doesn't know who you are or what your goal is until you tell it. A good prompt is like a detailed creative brief, not a vague request.
Zero-shot Prompting: Giving a task with no examples. E.g., 'Write a headline for a new coffee brand.' It relies entirely on the AI's internal knowledge.
When should you use 'Zero-shot' prompting?
- →When you have very specific formatting requirements
- →When the task is simple and you want a quick, general output based on the AI's pre-trained knowledge
- →When you want the AI to copy your exact writing style
- →When you are using an old AI model
Few-shot Prompting: Providing 2-3 examples of the input and the desired output. This 'teaches' the AI the pattern, style, and format you expect.
You want the AI to write product descriptions that match your brand's unique tone (witty and short). What is the best technique to use?
- →Zero-shot (just ask for witty descriptions)
- →Few-shot (provide 3 examples of previous witty descriptions you've written before asking for the new one)
- →Prompting in all caps
- →Asking the AI to be 'smart'
