Guide and framework for creating ChatGPT3 Prompts
This repo was developed by @mattnigh. Follow or connect with me on my LinkedIn.
Prompt engineering is the process of designing and refining the initial text or input (the prompt) that is given to a language model like ChatGPT to generate a response. It involves designing prompts that guide the model to generate a specific tone, style, or type of content.
- Use literal and explicit language
- Ask the model to act as if is an expert of the subject
- Ask the model to act as if it is a specific person, or combination of people
- Ask the model to think 'step-by-step', especially in medium to complex tasks
- Experiment with outputs,
Give me 10 different examples - Refine the results,
Rewrite this to be more engaging, use clearer language, and use bullets to make it more readable.
- When you need 100% reliability
- When you have no way to evaluate the accuracy of the model's output
- When you need to generate content that is not in the model's training data
Using a prompt framework when creating prompts for ChatGPT. Frameworks provides structure and clarity to the prompt creation process. It breaks prompt creation process into clear and distinct steps. I created the below framework (CRISPE) for my own use and experimentation of ChatGPT.
- Capacity: What role (or roles) should ChatGPT act as?
- Insight: Provides the behind the scenes insight, background, and context to your request.
- Statement: What you are asking ChatGPT to do.
- Personality: The style, personality, or manner you want ChatGPT to respond in.
- Experiment: Asking ChatGPT to provide multiple examples to you.
| Step | Example Prompt |
| Capacity | `Act as an expert on software development on the topic of machine learning frameworks, and an expert blog writer.` |
| Insight | `The audience for this blog is technical professionals who are interested in learning about the latest advancements in machine learning.` |
| Statement | `Provide a comprehensive overview of the most popular machine learning frameworks, including their strengths and weaknesses. Include real-life examples and case studies to illustrate how these frameworks have been successfully used in various industries.` |
| Personality | `When responding, use a mix of the writing styles of Andrej Karpathy, Francois Chollet, Jeremy Howard, and Yann LeCun.` |
| Experiment | `Give me multiple different examples.` |
The final prompt being Act as an expert on software development on the topic of machine learning frameworks,, and an expert blog writer. The audience for this blog is technical professionals who are interested in learning about the latest advancements in machine learning. Provide a comprehensive overview of the most popular machine learning frameworks, including their strengths and weaknesses. Include real-life examples and case studies to illustrate how these frameworks have been successfully used in various industries. When responding, use a mix of the writing styles of Andrej Karpathy, Francois Chollet, Jeremy Howard, and Yann LeCun.
I would refine this by saying Give me another example or Give me multiple examples and other prompts below (under Prompt Refinement).
