Advanced Prompting guide

To be honest, the word “Prompt Engineering” sounded like a bit black magic or even alchemy to me; It’s more of an art than a science.

But as all IT engineers are required to improve our productivity using AIs, I decided to learn it and go a little deeper on the subject.

This article is my learning notes as well as a practical guide for advanced prompting. In later sections, I have added insights that I gained through my prompt usage and Q&As with (or “interrogating”) AIs.

I didn’t really like GenAI because it hallucinates, consumes lots of energy, has raised memory and SSD prices, etc. But as an IT engineer, I can’t ignore it. In this post, I’ll try to learn how GenAI (LLM) works by asking a lot of questions to AI.

I mainly use Copilot because it is most lenient with hourly/daily usage limit. Below are mainly outputs from Copilot (but I modified/summarized them). Sorry if I didn’t remove all hallucinations. As it turned out, LLM as a technology is pretty interesting. Let’s see if I can learn something complex as LLM from AI.
