System Prompts and AI Development

System Prompts

System prompts are instructions given to Large Language Models (LLMs) that set the context and behavior for the AI's responses. They act as a foundation for the model's understanding and output, guiding its personality, knowledge base, and response style.

Example System Prompts

Effective Prompting Strategies

1. Be detailed and specific
2. Guide the model to think through its answer (provide step-by-step instructions)
3. Experiment and iterate on your prompts

AI Development Approaches

Approach	Steps
Supervised Learning	1. Obtain labeled data\n2. Train AI model on the data\n3. Deploy and run the model
Prompt-Based AI	1. Specify the prompt\n2. Deploy the model
