11 Prompt Engineering Tips to Boost Your Skills
Write Effective Prompts for Better Results
AI tools like ChatGPT are changing how we work.To get the most out of them, you need to learn how to write good prompts.
In this short blog post I share 11 tips to help you write better prompts.
1. Study Successful Prompts
When a prompt works well, don’t just move on. Ask yourself why it worked. Look at how it’s put together, change the words a little, and see what happens. This helps you learn how different ways of writing affect the AI’s answer.
2. Try Harder Tasks
Writing prompts for simple tasks won’t help you or the AI get better. Try harder tasks with more steps. Challenge the AI, find its weak spots, and make your prompts better for those tricky parts.
3. Make Prompts Flexible
Write prompts that can work in different situations. For example: For chatbots or tools that lots of people use, prompts need to handle all kinds of questions. Make them specific but still able to adjust.
4. Read the AI’s Answers
Don’t just check if the answer is right. Read the entire answer. Think about how the AI got there. This will help you make your prompts clearer and more accurate.
5. Ask for Explanations
Ask the AI to explain its reasoning. This helps you understand how the AI thinks about your prompt and shows where you can make it clearer.

6. Break Down Hard Tasks
If a task is complicated, break it into smaller steps. This helps the AI stay focused and makes it easier to fix if something goes wrong.
7. Learn by Trying
Keep testing different prompts. Every time you do, you learn something new. Push the AI with harder tasks to see what it can and can’t do.
8. Get Feedback
Show your prompts to others. They can find confusing parts that you might have missed. Read your prompts like it’s your first time seeing them to find unclear parts.
10. Know When to Stop
There’s no perfect prompt. If you’ve tried a lot of changes and it still isn’t better, accept the AI’s limits. Making too many changes can make the prompt too complicated.
11. Start a prompt library
Save your best prompts and write down why they worked well. This will help you work faster and find patterns in good prompts.
