Principles of Effective Prompt Design

Effective prompt design enhances communication with AI by minimizing ambiguity and guiding responses. It involves principles such as clarity, specificity, structure, and role conditioning to optimize the quality of AI-generated outputs. Iterative testing and refinement are key to mastering prompt design, allowing for continuous improvement in AI interactions.
