AI models and agents

Prompt engineering

Also known as: prompt design

Designing and testing instructions to produce useful results for a defined task.

A practical example

A prompt requires distinguishing facts from assumptions and citing sources.

What should I know?

A well-written prompt does not eliminate every model error.

AI models and agents in practice

A model processes information; the application defines tools and permissions. Reliable answers require good sources and verification. Actions involving accounts, content, and orders must stay within the granted scope.
