Exploring some advanced techniques
In previous sections, we covered some basic techniques of prompt engineering that can improve your LLM’s response regardless of the type of task you are trying to accomplish.
On the other hand, there are some advanced techniques that might be implemented for specific scenarios that we are going to cover in this section.
Note
Some advanced prompt engineering techniques like chain-of-thought (CoT) prompting are integrated into modern models such as OpenAI’s o1 series. These models are designed to internally process complex reasoning tasks by generating step-by-step logical sequences before arriving at a final answer, enhancing their problem-solving capabilities. This internal reasoning process allows o1 models to handle intricate queries more effectively without requiring explicit CoT prompts from users. However, employing CoT prompting can still be beneficial in guiding the model’s reasoning process for specific...
