Prompt Engineering — Crafting Better Prompts

Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication
When embarking on the journey of crafting prompts, it’s crucial to understand that it’s a cyclical procedure necessitating substantial experimentation for optimal outcomes.
Starting with basic prompts, then gradually incorporating more components and context is an effective strategy for pursuing enhanced results. As you progress, refining your prompt continuously is crucial for this purpose.
If you’re faced with a substantial task comprising multiple subtasks, consider dissecting the task into more manageable subtasks and gradually develop from there, achieving better outcomes. This approach prevents the introduction of excessive complexity too early in the prompt design process.
