1. Introduction to Non-
Technical Prompt
Engineering
Welcome to the world of prompt engineering. Prompt engineering is
about crafting instructions for AI models, ensuring they generate the
desired outputs. We will explore effective strategies to guide AI models
towards achieving your goals.

2. Understanding the
Fundamentals of Prompt
Design
Prompt design is the art of shaping your instructions to achieve the
desired outcome. Learn about the different components of a prompt,
including the input, context, and desired output.
1 Target Audience
Define who you are designing the prompt for - is it a general
audience or a specific group?
2 Task Definition
Clearly outline the objective and what you want the AI to do with
the information provided.
3 Input Type
Specify the format of the input data - text, images, code, or a
combination.
4 Output Format
Define how you want the output to be formatted, like text, code,
images, or a specific structure.

3. Crafting Effective Prompts: Best Practices
To create effective prompts, we will delve into techniques for crafting clear, concise, and specific instructions.
Be Clear and Concise
Avoid ambiguity and use simple
language that the AI model can
easily understand.
Simple Language
1.
Direct Instructions
2.
Avoid Jargon
3.
Provide Context
Give the AI model enough
information to understand the task
and generate relevant outputs.
Background Information
1.
Relevant Examples
2.
Constraints
3.
Specificity is Key
The more specific your prompt, the
more accurate and relevant the
results will be.
Target Audience
1.
Desired Output Format
2.
Desired Tone and Style

4. Exploring Different Prompt
Formats and Structures
Discover a range of prompt formats and structures to expand your
prompt engineering repertoire.
1 Template-Based Prompts
Utilize pre-designed templates with placeholders for
specific inputs, making it easy to customize and generate
variations.
2 Conversational Prompts
Engage with the AI model in a conversational style,
providing prompts that resemble natural language
interactions.
3 Multi-Modal Prompts
Combine different types of input, such as text and
images, to create prompts that guide the AI model to
generate more complex outputs.

5. Techniques for Prompt
Optimization
Master the art of refining prompts to maximize accuracy, creativity, and
overall effectiveness.
Iterative Refinement
Start with a basic prompt and gradually refine it by adding more
context and details based on the AI model's responses.
Experiment with Different Inputs
Try various input formats, like text, images, or code, to explore how
the AI model responds differently.
Leverage Feedback
Analyze the AI model's responses and identify areas for improvement
in your prompt design.
Test and Evaluate
Run multiple experiments with different prompts and compare the
results to identify the most effective strategies.

6. Incorporating Creativity and
Storytelling
Go beyond basic prompts and explore how to infuse creativity and
storytelling into your instructions.
1
Character Roles
Assign different roles or personas to the AI model to guide
its responses and generate creative content.
2
Setting and Tone
Establish a specific setting or mood for the AI model to
create immersive and engaging stories.
3
Dialogue and Interaction
Incorporate prompts that encourage dialogue and
interactions between characters or entities.

7. Evaluating and Refining Your
Prompts
Learn how to assess the quality of your prompts and identify areas for
improvement.
Criteria Evaluation Points
Accuracy Does the AI model generate
outputs that align with your
instructions?
Relevance Are the outputs relevant to the
context and information
provided in the prompt?
Creativity Does the AI model demonstrate
originality and generate unique
ideas?
Clarity Are the outputs easy to
understand and follow?
