The art and science of designing effective inputs for AI language models to produce accurate, useful, and reliable outputs.
Quick Facts
Prompt Engineering is the practice of crafting, structuring, and optimizing text inputs (prompts) to guide large language models (LLMs) and other AI systems toward producing desired outputs. It combines elements of linguistics, logic, domain expertise, and iterative experimentation.
