Prompt Engineering – Best Practices - Admin - 09-24-2025
A good prompt makes all the difference.
3 Core Rules
- Set the role: “You are a teacher explaining…”
- Specify format: “Answer in a table…”
- Use examples: “Here’s how I want the answer to look…”
Bad Prompt: “Tell me about AI.”
Good Prompt: “You are a computer science professor. Explain neural networks to a 3rd year student in under 200 words.”
