Event details

Ever wondered why LLMs such as ChatGPT or Copilot sometimes give great answers and other times miss the mark? Curious about how the way you phrase a question can completely change the result?

This session is all about exploring prompts – the instructions you give to AI – and how they shape what you get back.

We’ll look at simple frameworks, try out different approaches and see what works best. No technical knowledge needed, just bring your curiosity! If you can, bring a laptop so you can join in the hands-on practice.

Aims

  • Introduce the process of prompting and how it is used as the most common interaction technique with LLMS.
  • Explore ways in which prompting LLMs can be used to achieve useful output.
  • Work with different prompt frameworks to explore how they affect output.
