This guide is filled with real-world examples, hands-on exercises, and best practices that I've gathered from my extensive experience. It's designed to be informative and insightful for beginners and intermediate levels. If you don't have any experience in data science and AI/ML, this guide will walk you through the fundamentals and gradually introduce you to more advanced concepts.
In fact, LLM Prompt Engineering For Developers as a practical approach to Prompt Engineering for developers. Through chapters dedicated to Azure Prompt Flow, LangChain, and other tools, you'll gain hands-on experience in crafting, testing, scoring, and optimizing prompts. We'll also explore advanced concepts like Few-shot Learning, Chain of Thought, Perplexity, and techniques like ReAct and General Knowledge Prompting, equipping you with a comprehensive understanding of the domain.
This guide is designed to be hands-on, offering practical insights and exercises. In fact, as you progress, you'll familiarize yourself with several tools:
- openai Python library: You will dive into the core of OpenAI's LLMs and learn how to interact and fine-tune models to achieve precise outputs tailored to specific needs.
- promptfoo: You will master the art of crafting effective prompts. Throughout the guide, we'll use promptfoo to test and score prompts, ensuring they're optimized for desired outcomes.
- LangChain: Youβll explore the LangChain framework, which elevates LLM-powered applications. Youβll dive into understanding how a prompt engineer can leverage the power of this tool to test and build effective prompts.
- betterprompt: Before deploying, it's essential to test. With betterprompt, you'll ensure the LLM prompts are ready for real-world scenarios, refining them as needed.
- Azure Prompt Flow: You will experience the visual interface of Azure's tool, streamlining LLM-based AI development. You'll design executable flows, integrating LLMs, prompts, and Python tools, ensuring a holistic understanding of the art of prompting.
- And more!
With these tools in your toolkit, you will be well-prepared to craft powerful and effective prompts. The hands-on exercises will help solidify your understanding. Throughout the process, you'll be actively engaged and by the end, not only will you appreciate the power of prompt engineering, but you'll also possess the skills to implement it effectively.
By the end of this guide, you'll not only master the prompt engineering principles but also possess the skills to implement them effectively in your projects.
