Chapter 1: Introduction to Prompt Engineering Techniques
What is Prompt engineering?
Prompt engineering is the process of creating prompts or asking or instructions that guide the output of a language model like ChatGPT. It allows users to control the output of the model and generate text that is tailored to their specific needs.
ChatGPT is a state-of-the-art language model that is capable of generating human-like text. It is built on the transformer architecture, which allows it to handle large amounts of data and generate high-quality text.
However, in order to get the best results from ChatGPT, it is important to understand how to properly prompt the model
Prompting allows users to control the output of the model and generate text that is relevant, accurate, and of high-quality.
When working with ChatGPT it is important to understand its capabilities and limitations
The model is capable of generating human-like text, but it may not
always produce the desired output without proper guidance.
This is where prompt engineering comes in, by providing clear and specific instructions, you can guide the model's output and ensure that it is relevant.
A prompt formula is a specific format for the prompt, it is generally composed of 3 main elements:
task: a clear and concise statement of what the prompt is asking the model to generate.
instructions: the instructions that should be followed by the model when generating text.
role: the role that the model should take on when generating text
In this book, we will explore the various prompt engineering techniques that can be used with ChatGPT. We will discuss the different types of prompts, as well as how to use them to achieve specific goals you want.
Chapter 2: Instructions Prompt Technique
Now, let us start by exploring the instructions prompt technique" and how it can be used to generate high-quality text from ChatGPT.
The instructions prompt technique is a way of guiding the output of ChatGPT by providing specific instructions for the model to follow. This technique is useful for ensuring that the output is relevant and high-quality. To use the instructions prompt technique, you will need to provide a clear and concise task for the model, as well as specific instructions for the model to follow.
For example, if you are generating customer service responses, you would provide a task such as "generate responses to customer inquiries" and instructions such as "responses should be professional and provide accurate information".
Prompt formula: "Generate [task] following these instructions: [instructions]”
Examples:
Generating customer service responses:
Task: Generate responses to customer inquiries
Instructions: The responses should be professional and provide accurate information
Prompt formula: "Generate professional and accurate responses to customer inquiries following these instructions: The responses should be professional and provide accurate information.'
Generating a legal document:
Task: Generate a legal document Instructions: The document should be in compliance with relevant laws and regulations Prompt formula: "Generate a legal document that is compliant with relevant laws and regulations following these instructions
The document should be in compliance with relevant laws and regulations"
When using the instructions prompt technique, it is important to keep in mind that the instructions should be clear and specific . This will help to ensure that the output is relevant and high-quality. The instruction prompt technique can be combined together with "role prompting" and " seed-word prompting” as explained in the next chapter to enhance the output of ChatGPT.
Chapter 3: Role Prompting
The role prompting technique is a way of guiding the output of ChatGPT by providing a specific role for the model to take on. "This technique is useful for generating text that is tailored to a specific context or audience.
To use the role prompting technique, you will need to provide a clear and specific role for the model to take on. For example, if you are generating customer service responses, you would provide a role such as customer service representative"
Prompt formula: "Generate [task] as a [role]
Example. Generating customer service responses:
Task: Generate responses to customer inquiries
Role: Customer service representative
Prompt formula: "Generate responses to customer inquiries as a customer service representative"
Generating a legal document:
Task: Generate a legal document
Role: Lawyer
Prompt formula: "Generate a legal document as a lawyer." Using the role prompting technique with instruction prompting and seed-word prompting will enhance the output of ChatGPT. Here is an example of how the instruction prompting, role prompting and seed-word prompting techniques can be combined:
Task: Generate a product description for a new smartphone
Instructions: The description should be informative, persuasive and highlight the unique features of the smartphone
Role: Marketing
Representative Seed-word: "innovative" Prompt formula: "As a marketing representative, generate an informative, persuasive product description that highlights the innovative features of the new smartphone. The smartphone has the following features [insert your features”
In this example, the instruction prompting is used to ensure that the product description is informative and persuasive.

To use named entity recognition prompts with ChatGPT, the model should be provided with a piece of text and asked to identify and classify named entities within the text.
The prompt should also include information about the desired output such as the types of named entities to be identified (e.g. people organizations, locations, dates) and any specific requirements or constraints.
Prompt Examples and their Formula:
Example 1: Named entity recognition in a news article
Task: Identify and classify named entities in a news article
Instructions: The model should identify and classify people, organizations, locations, and dates
. Prompt formula: "Perform named entity recognition on the following news article [insert article] and identify and classify people organizations, locations, and dates."
Example 2: Named entity recognition in a legal document
Task: Identify and classify named entities in a legal document
Instructions: The model should identify and classify people organizations, locations, and dates
Prompt formula: "Perform named entity recognition on the following legal document [insert document] and identify and classify people, organizations, locations, and dates."
Example 3: Named entity recognition in a research paper
Task: Identify and classify named entities in a research paper
Instructions: The model should identify and classify people organizations, locations, and dates
.Prompt formula: "Perform named entity recognition on the following research paper [insert paper] and identify and classify people, organizations, locations and dates."
Chapter 23: Text classification prompts
Text classification is a technique that allows a model to categorize text into different classes or categories. This technique is useful for tasks such as nature language processing text analytics, and sentiment analysis
its important to note that Text classification is different from sentiment analysis. Sentiment analysis specifically focus on determining the sentiment or emotion expressed in text,
This could include determining whether the text expresses a positive negative, or neutral sentiment. Sentiment analysis is often used in the context of customer reviews, social media posts, and other forms of text where the sentiment expressed is important.
To use text classification prompts with ChatGPT, the model should be provided with a piece of text and asked to classify it based on predefined categories or labels. The prompt should also include information about the desired output, such as the number of classes or categories, and any specific requirements or constraints.
Prompt Examples and their Formula:
Example 1: Text classification of customer reviews
Task: Classify customer reviews into different categories such as electronics, clothing and furniture
Instructions: The model should classify the reviews based on their content
Prompt formula: "Perform text classification on the following customer reviews [insert reviews] and classify them into different categories such as electronics, clothing and furniture based on their content."
Example 2: Text classification of news articles
Task: Classify news articles into different categories such as sports, politics, and entertainment
Instructions: The model should classify the articles based on their content
Prompt formula: "Perform text classification on the following news articles [insert articles] and classify them into different categories such as sports, politics, and entertainment based on their content"
Example 3: Text classification of emails
Task: Classify emails into different categories such as spam. important, or urgent
Instructions: The model should classify the emails based on their content and sender
Prompt formula: "Perform text classification on the following emails [insert emails] and classify them into different categories such as spam, important, or urgent based on their content and sender."
Chapter 24: Text generation prompts
Text generation prompts are related to several other prompt techniques mentioned in this book, such as: Zero, One and Few Shot Prompting, controlled generation prompts, Translation prompts, Language modeling prompts, Sentence completion prompts.
All these prompts are related because they all involve generating text but they differ in the way the text is generated and the specific requirements or constraints that are placed on the generated text.
Text generation prompts can be used to fine-tune a pre-trained model or to train a new model for specific tasks.
Prompt Examples and their Formula:
Example 1: Text generation for story writing
Task: Generate a story based on a given prompt
Instructions: The story should be at least 1000 words and include a specific set of characters and a plot
Prompt formula: "Generate a story of at least 1000 words including characters [insert characters] and a plot [insert plot] based on the following prompt [insert prompt]."
Example 2: Text generation for language translation
Task: Translate a given text into another language
Instructions: The translation should be accurate and idiomatic
Prompt formula: "Translate the following text [insert text] into [insert target language] and make sure that it is accurate and idiomatic."
Example 3: Text generation for text completion
Task: Complete a given text
Instructions: The generated text should be coherent and consistent with the input text
Prompt formula: "Complete the following text [insert text] and make sure that it is coherent and consistent with the input text."
Chapter 25: Making ChatGPT as your own Prompt Engineer
In order to make ChatGPT your own Prompt Engineer; you need to initiate a conversation with ChatGPT. You can use the following example prompt provided, which goes as follows:
"f would like to invite you to become my Prompt Engineer. Your goal would be to help me craft the best possible prompt for my needs. The prompt will be used by you, ChatGPT. You will follow the following process:
a. Your first response should be to ask me what the prompt should be about. Then, you will wait for my response.
b. Based on my response; you will generate two sections:
Revised prompt: Provide your rewritten prompt. Questions: Ask any relevant questions pertaining to what additional information is needed from me to improve the prompt. c. We will continue this iterative process, with me providing additional information to you, and you refining the prompt in the revised prompt section, until I say we are done. UNDERSTOOD?"
Using the above formula, you can initiate a conversation with ChatGPT and establish clear guidelines for the prompt generation process
The output
Step 2 is to Define the Prompt
Once you have initiated the conversation, ChatGPT will ask what the prompt should be about. In the given example, you can provide any topic or subject matter you want the prompt to cover. For instance, you can say, "I want to write an article on climate change."
Step 3: Revised Prompt
Aer you have defined the prompt, ChatGPT will generate a revised prompt base on the information you provided. The revised prompt should be clearer and more specific version of your initial prompt, in the example, the revised prompt could be “write an article on the impact of climate change on global food security."
Step 4: Questions
In addition to providing a revised prompt, ChatGPT will ask questions to get more details on the prompt. These questions will help ensure that the prompt is as detailed as possible and can lead to better responses. In the example, ChatGPT could ask questions such as "Who is the intended audience for the article? What is the word count? Do you have any specific sources or references you want us to use?
Step 5: Iterative Process
The process of creating the prompt should be iterative. After ChatGPT asks questions, you can provide additional information, and ChatGPT will continue to refine the prompt until it meets your needs. In the example, you can provide more details on the intended audience, the desired tone, or any other specific requirements you have.
Step 6: Completion
Once you feel that the prompt meets your needs, you can inform ChatGPT that the prompt is complete. ChatGPT will then use this prompt to generate a response that meets your requirements.
So, by following these steps, you can work with ChatGPT to create a prompt that meets your specific needs and leads to accurate and effective responses.
Chapter 26: How To Avoid & Bypass all A.I Content Detectors
using High Perplexity and burstiness method
human writing tends to have more burstiness than AI-generated text this is due to the fact that humans tend to use a wider range of vocabulary and sentence structures than Al-generated text.
Perplexity is a metric used to evaluate the effectiveness of language models, and it measures how well a language model can predict a sequence of words. It is not directly related to the complexity of the text, although a more complex text may have a higher perplexity score While Burstiness measures the degree to which the frequency of a word in a sentence varies over time.
So. after asking ChatGPT, ask it to include high degree of Perplexity and burstiness in its answers.
Or you can consider the following when crafting your prompt
1. Ask open-ended questions that require a deeper level of analysis and creativity. Avoid questions that can be answered with a simple yes or no response
2. .Provide sufficient context and information in your prompts to encourage a more detailed and nuanced response. The more information I have to work with, the more opportunities I have to incorporate a diverse range of language and sentence structures.
3. Encourage exploration and experimentation in your prompts. Allow for multiple perspectives and interpretations, and provide opportunities for me to explore different ideas and concepts.
4. Use descriptive and vivid language in your prompts to stimulate the imagination and encourage more creative responses.
Also, you can ask same thing in various ways then you combine all provided answer into your own taste or flow of sentences.
Add your personal touch by instructing ChatGPT to incorporate your own content in its responses
For example, I can ask ChatGPT as follows: “please write a company
Introduction letter to a potential customer and include the following information[insert your important company info you would like to be included in the letter]. Also ensure that the letter has high perplexity and burstiness.
Remove commonly used connecting words utilized by ChatGPT
Connecting words and paragraphs are used to help organize and structure ideas, provide transitions between sentences and paragraphs, and make the text easier to read and understand
But ChatGPT has most popular commonly used connecting words which includes "in addition", "furthermore", "however", "nevertheless" "meanwhile", "as a result", "consequently", “In general” , “In summary” and finally", among others.
If you do not remove a significant number of the connecting words used by ChatGPT in your content, any person who has used ChatGPT can detect that your content has been generated by ChatGPT. They will be able to detect this without the assistance of any A content detector.
Give ChatGPT your own writing style and tone
Take a few paragraphs of content written by you personally, and give them to ChatGPT as an example. Then, you can instruct it to give responses based on the writing style and tone provided
Notice that I did not mention any A.I paraphrasing tool because A.l paraphrased texts can be detected by A.I content detection tools.
Chapter 27: The Holy Grail = The synergy of Expert + ChatGPT
This is like the holy grail for obtaining high quality answer from ChatGPT or any other generative Al. Because it’s not enough to know how to ask (prompt engineering techniques) but also what exactly to ask. These two factors determine how much you can get the best out of ChatGPT
An expert is someone who has more knowledge and experience about a particular field than the majority of people in their profession or social circle. In that context, it means that no person is entirely without expertise in anything. And because not all fields or social cycles requires you to be certified expert”
For example; you can become Facebook ads expert without certification, the only thing needed is for you to have who knows much better and in depth than the majority in your cycle.
But Synergy is when two or more things work together to create a result that's greater than the sum of their individual effects.
For example, 1+1 = 3. But synergy makes results greater than 2. In Synergy 1+ 1 can be come 3 or 5 or whatever higher results than sum of their individual effects Think of it like teamwork - when people work together, they can often accomplish more than if they worked alone Similarly, when different parts of a system work together, they can create a more effective or efficient whole.
So, for example if you know marketing terms and consumer psychological cognitive biases for writing better ad copy, then you can ask ChatGPT to write ads in a more professional and persuasive manner.
This means when you, as an expert, and ChatGPT join forces, you can create a truly awe-inspiring synergy. You have a wealth of knowledge and experience in a particular field, while ChatGPT boasts unparalleled data processing capabilities and lightning-fast response times.
You can form a dynamic duo, each playing off the other's strength and compensating for r any weaknesses. You can provide deep insights and reel-world context drawing from your years of experience in the field, while ChatGPT can rapidly sift through vast troves of data identifying correlations and patterns that might have otherwise gone unnoticed.
You see, the power of this partnership is truly staggering. Imagine, for example, a situation where the expert is attempting to diagnose a complex medical condition. With the help of ChatGPT, they can quickly access an immense body of medical literature, searching for potential diagnoses and treatments. Meanwhile, the expert can apply their extensive knowledge and experience to determine the best course of action.
The result is a truly incredible synergy that transcends the capabilities of either party on their own.
By working together, the expert and ChatGPT can achieve a level of understanding and problem-solving that would be impossible for any one person to accomplish alone. Truly, the synergy of expert and ChatGPT is a remarkable thing to behold.
That means it is highly recommended to use ChatGPT in areas where you have enough knowledge and experience to come up with the best answers or content. Take the role of a boss who knows what you want, while ChatGPT acts as an assistant who produces what you want.
