This lecture is from the course Generative AI For All in Plain English - Essentials.
In this lecture, we define prompt engineering as the art and science of improving Gen AI prompts to get the best results. I explain that it involves looking at a prompt and trying to make it better, often using advanced techniques.
I emphasise that prompt engineering is both an art and a science, and requires practice as much as learning.
We define artificial intelligence, generative artificial intelligence, prompts, and prompt engineering, and provided examples of each.
