This book will teach you the prompt design and authoring skills you need to get useful and relevant responses from AI models, along with advanced prompting techniques for Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG), building autonomous agents, and data privacy. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Prompt engineering is the discipline of writing instructions for AI models to generate relevant, accurate, and usable completions. This book shows you how to engineer prompts that ensure the outputs of LLMs and other generative AI models exactly match your requirements. You'll learn how to structure your objectives, take advantage of contextual details, and even pick the right model for your task. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eAI Engineering in Practice\u003c\/i\u003e teaches you how to: \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e - Design prompts that generate accurate and readable responses from LLMs\u003cbr\u003e - Mitigate hallucinations in LLM output\u003cbr\u003e - Domain-aware content generation using RAG\u003cbr\u003e - How AI model design affects your prompts\u003cbr\u003e - Evaluate, optimize, and organize your prompts \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eAbout the book\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ci\u003eAI Engineering in Practice\u003c\/i\u003e introduces valuable prompt engineering techniques based on industry usage and AI research. You'll learn by exploring real-world cases and examples, from simple tasks like generating formal emails to using LLMs for data annotation, classifying tech support tickets, and building custom chatbots.
