Prompt Engineering Seminar Report-1
Abstract
Prompt engineering refers to the process of designing and refining prompts used to interact
with language models such as GPT. It involves crafting effective inputs to elicit desired
outputs from AI models, enhancing both the relevance and quality of the response.
Keywords
Prompt engineering, Language models, GPT, NLP, AI interaction
Introduction
In the era of Artificial Intelligence, Natural Language Processing (NLP) plays a pivotal role in
enabling machines to understand human language. Prompt engineering has emerged as a
crucial technique for optimizing the interaction between humans and AI language models,
like GPT. It focuses on structuring prompts in a way that maximizes the effectiveness of the
model’s response, with applications ranging from customer service to content generation.
Literature Review
Several studies have been conducted on prompt engineering, exploring various strategies to
improve AI outputs. Early work focused on simple input-output modeling, but recent
developments have emphasized more structured, dynamic prompts, leveraging context-
aware and multi-turn dialogue systems.
Research Gaps
Despite significant advancements, there are still gaps in the research, particularly in how AI
models interpret ambiguous or complex prompts. Additionally, limited work has been done
on cross-domain prompt generalization, where prompts are applied across different
industries and tasks.
Problem Statement
The current challenge in prompt engineering is to create a framework that allows non-
experts to design effective prompts without needing a deep understanding of AI or NLP.
This would democratize AI usage, making it accessible for a broader audience.
Objectives
1. To study the current techniques used in prompt engineering.
2. To identify gaps in existing methods.
3. To develop a user-friendly prompt design framework.
4. To test the framework across various industries.
Proposed System
This report proposes a system where prompt design is automated using templates and
context-aware suggestions. The system would analyze user inputs and guide them through
a step-by-step process to refine their prompts. It would also include a feedback loop, where
the AI model evaluates the effectiveness of the prompt and suggests improvements.
