ChatGPT Prompt Engineering for D

链接：https://learn.deeplearning.ai/chatgpt-prompt-eng/lesson/1/introduction

In this course, there are some example codes that you can already run in Jupyter Notebook. Below, I will write down the core knowledge points (how to build a prompt and how the prompt looks like in each application. So, this blog contains more notes than tutorials). If you want to know more details, please refer to the link at the beginning of this article.

1. introduce

Origin Slide picture:

• Base LLM

  • Predicts next word, based on text training data

• Instruction Tuned LLM

  • Tries to follow instuctions
  • Fine-tune on instructions and good attempts at following those instructions
  • usually use tech named RLHF (Reinforcement Learning with Human Feedback)

This course will focus on best practices for instruction-tuned LLMs.

2. GuideLines

In this lesson, you'll practice two prompting principles and their related tactics in order to write effective prompts for large language models.

2.1 how to set your prompt

Origin Slide picture:

2.png

• Principle 1 - Write clear and specific instructions (clear ≠ short）
  • Tactic 1: Use delimiters to clearly indicate distinct parts of the input
    • Delimiters can be anything like: ```, """, < >, <tag> </tag>, :

# prompt example:
text = f"""
You should express what you want a model to do by \ 
providing instructions that are as clear and \ 
specific as you can possibly make them. \ 
This will guide the model towards the desired output, \ 
and reduce the chances of receiving irrelevant \ 
or incorrect responses. Don't confuse writing a \ 
clear prompt with writing a short prompt. \ 
In many cases, longer prompts provide more clarity \ 
and context for the model, which can lead to \ 
more detailed and relevant outputs.
"""
prompt = f"""
Summarize the text delimited by triple backticks \ 
into a single sentence.
```{text}```
"""

• • Tactic 2: Ask for a structured output
    • JSON, HTML

#prompt example:
prompt = f"""
Generate a list of three made-up book titles along \ 
with their authors and genres. 
Provide them in JSON format with the following keys: 
book_id, title, author, genre.
"""

• • Tactic 3: Ask the model to check whether conditions are satisfied

# prompt example
text_1 = f"""
Making a cup of tea is easy! First, you need to get some \ 
water boiling. While that's happening, \ 
grab a cup and put a tea bag in it. Once the water is \ 
hot enough, just pour it over the tea bag. \ 
Let it sit for a bit so the tea can steep. After a \ 
few minutes, take out the tea bag. If you \ 
like, you can add some sugar or milk to taste. \ 
And that's it! You've got yourself a delicious \ 
cup of tea to enjoy.
"""
prompt = f"""
You will be provided with text delimited by triple quotes. 
If it contains a sequence of instructions, \ 
re-write those instructions in the following format:

Step 1 - ...
Step 2 - …
…
Step N - …

If the text does not contain a sequence of instructions, \ 
then simply write \"No steps provided.\"

\"\"\"{text_1}\"\"\"
"""

• • Tactic 4: "Few-shot" prompting

#prompt example
prompt = f"""
Your task is to answer in a consistent style.

<child>: Teach me about patience.

<grandparent>: The river that carves the deepest \ 
valley flows from a modest spring; the \ 
grandest symphony originates from a single note; \ 
the most intricate tapestry begins with a solitary thread.

<child>: Teach me about resilience.
"""

Origin Slide picture:

3.png

• Principle 2 - Give the model time to think
• • Tactic 1: Specify the steps required to complete a task

#prompt example
text = f"""
In a charming village, siblings Jack and Jill set out on \ 
a quest to fetch water from a hilltop \ 
well. As they climbed, singing joyfully, misfortune \ 
struck—Jack tripped on a stone and tumbled \ 
down the hill, with Jill following suit. \ 
Though slightly battered, the pair returned home to \ 
comforting embraces. Despite the mishap, \ 
their adventurous spirits remained undimmed, and they \ 
continued exploring with delight.
"""
# example 1
prompt_1 = f"""
Perform the following actions: 
1 - Summarize the following text delimited by triple \
backticks with 1 sentence.
2 - Translate the summary into French.
3 - List each name in the French summary.
4 - Output a json object that contains the following \
keys: french_summary, num_names.

Separate your answers with line breaks.

Text:
```{text}```
"""

• • Tactic 2: Instruct the model to work out its own solution before rushing to a conclusion

#prompt example:
prompt = f"""
Your task is to determine if the student's solution \
is correct or not.
To solve the problem do the following:
- First, work out your own solution to the problem. 
- Then compare your solution to the student's solution \ 
and evaluate if the student's solution is correct or not. 
Don't decide if the student's solution is correct until 
you have done the problem yourself.

Use the following format:
Question:
···
question here
···
Student's solution:
···
student's solution here
···
Actual solution:
···
steps to work out the solution and your solution here
···
Is the student's solution the same as actual solution \
just calculated:
···
yes or no
···
Student grade:
···
correct or incorrect
···

Question:
···
I'm building a solar power installation and I need help \
working out the financials. 
- Land costs $100 / square foot
- I can buy solar panels for $250 / square foot
- I negotiated a contract for maintenance that will cost \
me a flat $100k per year, and an additional $10 / square \
foot
What is the total cost for the first year of operations \
as a function of the number of square feet.
···
Student's solution:
···
Let x be the size of the installation in square feet.
Costs:
1. Land cost: 100x
2. Solar panel cost: 250x
3. Maintenance cost: 100,000 + 100x
Total cost: 100x + 250x + 100,000 + 100x = 450x + 100,000
···
Actual solution:
"""

2.2 Model Limitations

LLMs may cause some hallucinations. (Makes statements that sound plausible but are not true.)
Solutions ( reducing hallucinations ): First find relevant information, then answer the question based on the relevant information.

3. Iterative (Iterative Prompt Development)

Origin Slide picture:

5.png 6.png

In this lesson, you'll iteratively analyze and refine your prompts to generate marketing copy from a product fact sheet.

Prompt guidelines:

• Be clear and specific
• Analyse why result dose not give desired output
• Refine the idea and the prompt
• Repeat

Iterative Process

• Try something
• Analyse where the result dose not give what you want
• Clarify instructions, give more time to think
• Refine prompts with a banch of examples

Example:

condition the battery, I've unplugged the charger and \
been using it for twice daily brushing for the last \
3 weeks all on the same charge. But the toothbrush head \
is too small. I’ve seen baby toothbrushes bigger than \
this one. I wish the head was bigger with different \
length bristles to get between teeth better because \
this one doesn’t.  Overall if you can get this one \
around the $50 mark, it's a good deal. The manufactuer's \
replacements heads are pretty expensive, but you can \
get generic ones that're more reasonably priced. This \
toothbrush makes me feel like I've been to the dentist \
every day. My teeth feel sparkly clean!

So, they still had the 17 piece system on seasonal \

system. And the 11 piece system went up around $10 or \
so in price also from the earlier sale price of $29. \
