-: Welcome back, and in this video
what we're gonna be talking about is why it's important
to give detailed instructions to ChatGPT.
Having a look at ChatGPT,
in this specific chat history,
we've got a similar mark down table
for some different types of prompts,
with some lower quality prompts,
and high quality prompts.
As you can see on the left, the lower quality prompts are,
"Can you, for example, give me some book recommendations?"
A more high quality prompt, or a more detailed prompt,
would be,
"Could you recommend any recent science fiction novels
that explore themes of artificial intelligence
and humanity's future?"
This is a good example of where we've got
a very vague prompt, which doesn't really give
any information about what you're looking for
in particular detail.
And, on the right hand side, we have a more high quality,
more in detail prompt.
So, let's also ask ChatGPT,
"Why is it important that we give details to prompts?"
There's a couple of different reasons.
One is, the more specific your question or prompt,
the more targeted and accurate the response.
Also, it gives ChatGPT,
and other large language models,
the contextual understanding to understand your entire scope
of the task or problem.
It's also much more efficient,
and you'll find yourself not having to do lots
of extra prompt hacks,
and the quality of the response you get back
is much greater.
Make sure that you spend more time on your prompts
and make them detailed.
