Case Studies in Prompt Engineering

Skillsoft issued completion badges are earned based on viewing the percentage required or receiving a passing score when assessment is required. Data generation prompts instruct language models to generate synthetic data, useful for creating datasets. Code generation prompts are used to produce code snippets or entire programs, aiding developers in coding tasks. Zero-shot prompts challenge models to respond to unfamiliar tasks, relying on their general knowledge. Few-shot prompts provide limited context to guide models in addressing specific tasks, enhancing their adaptability. You will start this course by working with data generation and code generation prompts. You will explore how to use starter code prompts, convert code from one language to another, and prompt models to explain a piece of code. Next, you will see how to leverage generative AI to debug your code and generate complex bits of code with step-by-step instructions. Finally, you will explore techniques to improve prompt performance.
