"Prompt Engineering" - from "It's AIght: Required Learning for Data Scientists"

There are good prompts and there are bad prompts. Do you know the basics? Do you know how to get exactly what you need out of an LLM? Here's a basic tutorial, set to song.

(Intro)
In the world of AI, where the words hold the power…
Prompt engineering rise up, hour after hour…
(Chorus)
Prompts on the rise, engineerin’ the flow,
Guide the machine, let the knowledge grow.
From vague to sharp, watch the answers glow,
In the art of the prompt, that’s how we roll.
(Verse 1)
Start with the basics, keep it clear and direct,
No fluff in the mix, just facts to connect.
Role-play the scene, set the context erect,
AI responds quick, no room for neglect.
Iterate fast, tweak the words like a pro,
Temperature low for the logic to show.
(Chorus)
Prompts on the rise, engineerin’ the flow,
Guide the machine, let the knowledge grow.
From vague to sharp, watch the answers glow,
In the art of the prompt, that’s how we roll.
(Verse 2)
Few examples in, show the pattern it needs,
Demonstrate once, twice, plant the seeds.
Chain-of-thought steps, break it down with ease,
Reason through layers, unlock the keys.
Avoid the bias, keep the query clean,
Multimodal vibes, text and image scene.
(Chorus)
Prompts on the rise, engineerin’ the flow,
Guide the machine, let the knowledge grow.
From vague to sharp, watch the answers glow,
In the art of the prompt, that’s how we roll.
(Verse 3)
Refine with constraints, limit the scope tight,
Specify format, JSON or list right.
Test and retest, in the dead of the night,
Hallucinations fade, truth comes to light.
Ethical bounds, steer clear of the harm,
Prompts build the future, keep it calm.
(Chorus)
Prompts on the rise, engineerin’ the flow,
Guide the machine, let the knowledge grow.
From vague to sharp, watch the answers glow,
In the art of the prompt, that’s how we roll.
(Verse 4)
Advanced techniques, like RAG in the game,
Retrieve and augment, elevate the aim.
Prompt chains link up, complex tasks tame,
From simple ask to a masterful frame.
Feedback loops spin, improve every turn,
In the engineer’s world, that’s how we learn.
(Chorus)
Prompts on the rise, engineerin’ the flow,
Guide the machine, let the knowledge grow.
From vague to sharp, watch the answers glow,
In the art of the prompt, that’s how we roll.
(Verse 5)
Master the craft, prompts sharp as a blade,
AI’s potential, fully displayed.
From code to creation, ideas cascade,
Principles solid, never to fade.
Engineerin’ prompts, the ultimate trade,
In the digital flow, we’ve got it made.
(Final Chorus)
Prompts on the rise, engineerin’ the flow,
Guide the machine, let the knowledge grow.
From vague to sharp, watch the answers glow,
In the art of the prompt… that’s how we roll.
