Prompting made me a better communicator

Prompt Engineering has become a passion topic of mine. It's super fun to tinker with GenAI, to ask it questions and to optimize the way that I ask those questions.

The basic of Prompt Engineering are simple:

1. Task specify a task that you want the LLM to do for you.
2. Context give the chatbot the context that it needs to complete your task.
3. Format how do you want the LLM to respond to you? A bullet point list? A table? A slide deck? a blogpost?
4. Process if you already know a great process to solve the problem, tell the AI to follow it. If you don't, at least give it room to think.

Generative AI is here to stay!

Some reflections on what 2022 showed us about the future.

Generative AI describes AI that takes a prompt and generates something from it. Prime examples include Copilot which takes code or comments as a prompt to complete the code I want to write, ChatGPT which takes a chat message and replies with a human-like answer and Stable-Diffusion (or Dall-E, or Midjourney) which takes a prompt and returns a fitting image. All of these AIs made massive progress in 2022!
