Hands-On Prompt Engineering

A comprehensive introduction to the fundamentals of prompt engineering with ChatGPT


Hands-On Prompt Engineering: Learning to Program ChatGPT Using OpenAI APIs is a practical and essential resource for any professional looking to implement AI in their business. This book teaches you the basics of prompt engineering, which lets you program ChatGPT to perform tasks. It focuses on business applications of AI and walks you through the process of implementing techniques and algorithms using available software tools. You’ll also learn the approaches and best practices that have led to success for leaders in this area.

Prompt engineering differs from the process of coding traditional queries in a few key ways. With prompt engineering, task descriptions are formulated as questions, so the description of the task is embedded in the input given to the AI. Additionally, some language models can be trained to complete tasks using information contained in the prompts (prompt-based learning). Hands-On Prompt Engineering teaches you to work with these and pretrained models using Python code.
