The difference between 'AI is useless to me' and 'AI saves me ten hours a week' is almost always how you ask. This guide is the open reference for prompting techniques, with examples to copy.
Who this is NOT for
It is a reference guide, not a step-by-step course: if you prefer guided learning, start with the Microsoft course and come back here to look up specific techniques.
Available in multiple languages and readable straight in the browser: the lowest entry barrier in the entire Vault. Minimum reading we recommend: basics, few-shot and chain-of-thought. Those three techniques alone double what you get from any model, local or cloud.
Your first step
Open promptingguide.ai and read the basics section with one of your real use cases next to it.
The Prompt Engineering Guide implementation guide
The project belongs to DAIR.AI (Elvis Saravia) and it is free: the link beside asks for nothing. The guide to set it up without getting lost is ours: step by step, common mistakes and a checklist. Leave your email and we will send it.
