Welcome to Learn Prompting, the ultimate course on prompt engineering! Prompt engineering (PE) is all about how to talk to AI to get it to do what you want. Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) have made PE a sought-after and valuable skill. This course focuses on applied PE techniques, and is designed for those with minimal knowledge of machine learning.
Our course philosophy is focused on quick iterations, practicality and examples. We will update this course frequently with short articles about new techniques and provide examples to get a feel for the techniques as quickly as possible. If you ever see something that you don’t quite understand, just let us know and we’ll be happy to help.
We have organized the course into 8 chapters. If you are new to AI and PE, we recommend starting with the Basics section. If you are already familiar with these concepts, you can jump right in with the Intermediate section. Each article is rated according to difficulty and programming requirements, so you can choose what interests you most.
The Basics section covers the fundamentals of PE, such as an intro to PE and simple PE techniques. The Intermediate section covers slightly more complicated, research-backed PE techniques. The Applied Prompting section provides complete walkthroughs of the PE process written by experienced community members.
The Advanced Applications section covers very powerful, but more advanced applications of PE. The Reliability section looks into how to make machine learning models more reliable. The Images section covers PE for text to image models like DALLE and Stable Diffusion. The Prompt Injection section covers “hacking” for PE, and the Prompting IDEs and Prompt Tuning sections cover different PE tools and how to fine tune prompts with gradients.
No matter what your experience level is with AI and PE, this course has something for you. We look forward to helping you master your PE skills and get the most out of your AI applications. If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, don’t hesitate to contact us. Happy learning!
