#13Prompt engineering doesn't feel like an activity that creates sustainable AI advancement. A prompt may work well with one model, in most situations, but even the best practices seem too experimental. For their competition to avoid a PR disaster, isn't it better to look in the model? Perhaps observe the weights, when the AI says something that you want to avoid in the future. A safeguard could trigger if the model is…

Only in that the very initial version was GPT + prompt. ChatGPT is heavily fine-tuned using both handwritten examples and later on rated examples from its own output. The prompt is still relevant but the fine-tuning is the biggest thing that makes it work like a chatbot.

#16Towards the end they state: ‘… just adding “do not hallucinate” has been shown to reduce the odds a model hallucinates.’ I find this surprising and doesn’t fit with my understanding of how a language model works.

#17Interesting analogue to books like "How to win friends and influence people". This genre of self help books include a lot of things that when you squint look like prompt engineering on humans
Although doesn't the Dale Carnegie book focus mostly on being a good listener and using emotional intelligence? Prompt engineering doesn't seem to be very similar to this AFAIK.

My mental model is “telling a LLM to not make any mistakes is like telling a depressed person to stop feeling bad”.
