Principles of Effective Prompting
To create effective prompts, you need to follow four key principles:
- Clarity;
- Specificity;
- Context;
- Role assignment.
Clarity means using unambiguous language. Specificity involves providing detailed instructions. Context gives the AI background information. Role assignment tells the AI to respond as a particular expert or persona.
Example
As a professional nutritionist, list three healthy breakfast options for children aged 3 to 6. This prompt is clear (asks for three options), specific (healthy breakfast for children), provides context (children aged 3 to 6), and assigns a role (professional nutritionist).
