Overview

Prompt engineering is the skill of writing instructions that get AI to produce exactly what you need. It's the single highest-leverage AI skill you can learn.

What you'll learn

  1. The anatomy of a good prompt: role, context, task, format, constraints
  2. Few-shot prompting: giving examples to guide output
  3. Chain-of-thought: making AI show its reasoning
  4. Iterative refinement: improving outputs through follow-ups

Why this matters

The gap between "AI is useless" and "AI saved me 10 hours this week" is almost always prompt quality.
