Prompt engineering is rarely a one-shot process; it often involves iterative refinement to achieve the desired results. This means starting with an initial prompt, evaluating the AI’s response, and then modifying the prompt based on that output to steer the AI closer to the intended goal. By analyzing these shortcomings, you can then adjust the prompt by adding more context, specifying constraints, refining the persona, or even asking the AI to “try again but focus on…” or “elaborate on…”.
