[@LukeBarousse]

Figuring out the amount of context to give ChatGPT has been my BIGGEST frustration; appreciate how you broke this down

[@JeffSu]

Agreed with you 100% Luke! I used to go ON AND ON and realized there's definitely a point of diminishing returns. Now the 3 questions just acts as a guardrail for me not to waste too much time giving background info!

[@Reclaimer77]

Same. It's so clear to me this isn't even close to being an "AI" like everyone keeps going on about. I know content creators like Jeff Su and trying to help but the minute I need to use math formulas to get GPT to understand what I want?? Kind of defeats the whole purpose. And it's almost like GPT "Pro" is dumber than 3.5??? I just upgraded and the actual experience isn't anything like the KZbin hyptrain is claiming it is.

[@alpha0xide9]

​@@Reclaimer77no, you just have to learn to talk to it. GPT-4 is absolutely amazing.

[@Reclaimer77]

@@alpha0xide9 Well after a LOT of frustration I've apparently coded my first ever Python Windows app using ChatGPT. Soooo, I guess maybe I was overly harsh. I will say it takes a LOT of prodding and rephrasing stuff. But considering I haven't seriously used a CMD prompt for writing code since my first Tandy T-1000 (showing my age)....I'm kinda stoked lol

[@ladiesperfume]

Same here Luke! It helps to imagine what the output would look like and try to use that when figuring out the amount of context.

I seriously love this, especially the "tell it the feeling you want so that it gives you 5 tone keywords you can include in a prompt for ChatGPT". I saw one somewhere where you can ask it to play devil's advocate so you can see debatable opinions/outputs for either decision making or stuff like that. The options are endless, which I absolutely love. Thank you! Also, I noticed that the examples (black screen with moving white dots and then the copy over it) are on the screen longer. Thank you!! Not sure why but it helps me take in and absorb the info easier. Love it!!

[@tophuonghuynhnguyen1684]

I had a previous thought about the dark side of ChatGPT. Our brand recently faced a social media crisis, and when I turned to ChatGPT to prepare some seeding comments to defend our brand, my mind went up with an idea: "What if I generate negative comments to influence public opinion," using the context directly from our first post? The results blew off my mind. They were exactly the same negative comments I'd seen on our previous post. Hopefully, technology goes for the right thing for our generation.

Gemini AI: Jeff Su's advice is a good introduction to prompt engineering. It provides a solid foundation and some useful techniques. However, remember that prompting is an art, not a science. The best way to improve your prompts is to practice, experiment, and learn what works best for you and the specific task at hand.

[@conroybogle3713]

Another good prompt format that I use is to divide the prompt into labelled sections. Eg: 1. What is the capital of Brazil? 2. How far is the answer from 1. (or you can just say "it") from the Amazon River? 3a. Whats 300 × 11? 3b. Minus 150 from the answer This way for output (I hate using that word with ai) you would get one long answer to every question that you might be wondering filling in all blanks. Pro tip: as you read the 'output' set the coursor in the input field as if youre about to type something so that the keyboard appears. Then as you read using the remaining vertical space, write down every question that arises in this format. Perfect for research.

[@JeffSu]

Interesting!

[@andrea_dong]

Really great value in such a short video, Jeff! Context has always been the trickiest part for me but I've found that sometimes less can be more in the initial prompt. Additional context can always be fed in later on using the conversational interface :3 Also, congrats on 500k! I'm so happy to see how far your channel has come along 😄 I'm gonna make a prediction and say you'll reach 1mil by the end of the year!

[@JeffSu]

Agreed Andrea! Sometimes I like to follow up as well. I'm basically trying to find that sweet spot where I can get 80% of the way there with the initial prompt, then fine-tune as needed 😁

[@denisamokhvalov]

Thanks for the video, Jeff. Concise and useful tips as always. It looks like ChatGPT can use strikethrough text. So when using it for correcting texts (6:15), you can ask it to strikethrough the corrected words instead of deleting them, so that you don't have to hop between the corrected version and the original version.

[@JeffSu]

That's a great point!!

[@christerjohanzzon]

Yes, as it uses MarkDown or HTML, one can ask it to use all kinds of formatting. You can even set the custom instructions to use a specific version of MarkDown, useful if you are using a note taking tool like Obsidian, Notion etc. that might be using their own versions of it.

Excellent presentation. I found this out too. The key components here give you a higher quality result. I've found that breaking it down is helpful. I will ask if it understands or sometimes I will give it context, then an exemplar and ask it to respond "read" and only "read" so I don't use up memory. That allows me to load in content. I've found it does better with preloading it with context and exemplars then giving it a task after that.

I think one thing that has helped me (as a prompt engineer on the side) is a principle I learned while doing research in physics - set your boundary conditions. This is implicit in setting an environment, but I think worth stating explicitly. If you can tell GPT what the boundaries are on some context/environment X, then it'll give you an even better response.

Me and ChatGPT as a human what we do is, we delve into deeper thinkings by sharing what's in our mind and then make theories (unapproved but really mind bending and almost precise).....fr these stuffs got me upppp! In psychological perspectives (well I am a vegan, introvert)

[@grenet2109]

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: Task: This is the most important part, tell the AI what you want it to do (write, generate, analyze). Context: Give relevant background info to guide the AI towards the desired outcome. Ask yourself: Who? What? Why? When? Where? ✨ Exemplars: Provide examples to improve the quality of the output. Persona: Imagine the AI acting as a specific character (e.g., business coach, writer). Format: Specify the format of the output (e.g., email, code, bullet points). Tone: Set the desired tone of the AI's response (e.g., serious, funny, formal). ✅ Not all required: You don't need all 6 components for every prompt, just include what's relevant. Start with a checklist: Use this formula as a guide to ensure your prompts are clear and effective. Context: Focus on 3 things: user background, success definition, and environment. ⏱️ Example 1: Include background info but prioritize only what's relevant to the task. ✨ Example 2: Show a bad bullet point and then ask the AI to rewrite it in a better format. Example 3: Provide a framework (STAR method) for the AI to follow when answering an interview question. Exemplars: Not required for every prompt, but helpful to improve output quality. Persona: Imagine the AI acting as a specific helpful person (e.g., consultant, coach). Persona: Imagine the AI as a helpful expert (e.g., therapist, recruiter, marketer). - ‍♀️ Fictional characters work too (e.g., Batman). - ️ Format: Close your eyes and visualize your desired output format (e.g., table, email, code). - Common formats: Bullet points, emails, code blocks. - Most useful (professional): Paragraphs and markdown with headings. - ✏️ Proofreading tip: Ask the AI to bold all changes for easy review. - Tone: Use simple terms (casual/formal), emotions (witty/enthusiastic/pessimistic). - Pro tip: Tell the AI the desired feeling (e.g., serious but not arrogant). Combine all 6 components: Use all the prompt building blocks (task, context, persona, format, exemplars, tone) for a strong output. - Example email structure: Break down your desired email format into clear sections (e.g., tl;dr, background, results, thanks). - Clear & concise language: Instruct the AI to use easy-to-understand and professional language. - Confident & friendly tone: Aim for a balanced tone that sounds both authoritative and approachable. - Reference existing email (optional): If you have a similar email, include it for the AI to copy the format. - Simpler vs. detailed prompts: A more detailed prompt leads to better, less generic results.

Stumbled upon this a few months back and come to find my company is using the same video in their genAI training. Man I hope you get compensated somehow for that. 75k employees have to watch this video apart of mandatory training

Wow I'm honored, thanks for letting me know!!

Prompting really is the game changer! Thank you

[@JeffSu]

You're welcome!

[@Jake7706]

"Exemplar is just a fancy way of saying examples!" Not true. It is the best of the examples. Your videos seem pretty good but why undermine their value by miseducating others?

[@JeffSu]

Thanks for the feedback Jake 😁! I guess I was trying to find the simplest way to explain it (since arguably the "best of the examples" is very subjective)

[@Jake7706]

@@JeffSu An exemplar is by definition singular, and not plural as you indicate. There is no obligation to be objective, which is a gratuitous, arbitrary “requirement,” even though it distorts what the word means. Why don’t we let it drop, lest the hole gets deeper? 😉

[@JeffSu]

@@Jake7706 sure!

This was a very useful video for me and Thank you for sharing . I learnt how to use ChatGPT in a proper way by this video.

[@JeffSu]

Glad to hear it!!

[@atlantic_love]

LOL, that guy's so full of shit. He didn't spend "hundreds of hours" studying courses on prompt. Ridiculous.

[@JeffSu]

Dam you caught me. I totally made all this up 😂

ChatGPT + Informative YT channels like yours has been life changing !

[@JeffSu]

Agreed 😁

Hello! You can change the speed of the video. Click on the gear ⚙️ in the upper right hand corner of the video to change the settings. Then click playback speed and normal to change to something slower. 😊

Man this is Gold, I am blown away by how far AI has come. This stuff is actually really useful

[@JeffSu]

I know right??

[@sierraecho884]

@@JeffSu I just recently started to dive into the whole AI stuff. At first I thought it´s a typical new hype once again (which it is in many cases) and I also thought that, it´s not as useful to me (mech. engineer) but man this is super useful. I needed a short explanation like yours to get into it easier.

[@JeffSu]

@@sierraecho884 So glad to hear that!!

[@SJGFitness]

Thank you for this simple formula. It's something that I can really build upon in the work that I do with ChatGPT.

No problem 😁

Hi jeff to be honest one of the best videos in the internet for prompt engineering is your thank you please do share this kind of content

[@JeffSu]

Woohooo thank you!! 😁

[@ZalifahAziz]

This video has really saved me from further distress and torment from the lack of knowledge on AI, struggling to fit into a world of tech and AI in old age. Thank you so much, Mr Su!

[@JeffSu]

No problem 😁

Hahaha I definitely need a “you are Jeff Su prompt!” Great video!!

My advice to all parents is to ensure that your children receive a solid education from primary to high school. This foundational learning is essential for them to be able to effectively use tools like ChatGPT and other AI technologies in the future.

[@JeffSu]

For sure! 😁

[@sandro-nigris]

I love your video: watching it for the second time now... You did an awesome job, Jeff! Thanks. Please do more.
