5 Min Series - Prompting

#chatgpt #genai

I've started a YouTube series "5+ min of My GPT". In this series I am creating short screencasts of me trying out various prompting techniques on ChatGPT, customGPTs and more.

I've been using ChatGPT and other genAI tools for over a year now and they've changed the way I do my technical work and research. Before I explore the OpenAI Assistants API, I want to 'go deep' into what can be done in ChatGPT web UI.

So far I've looked at the following:

Creating, testing and updating multiple custom GPTs in the ChatGPT web UI
Using multiple plugins to improve the quality of responses
Prompt engineering techniques such as setting context, specifying output, chaining and others.

In addition to the 10 short screencasts I've made already, I am looking to explore/collaborate with others who are learning in this space. I feel like the dev community headed directly to RAG patterns (i.e. embeddings and vector DBs) and skipped deep diving into understanding the nuances of prompt engineering.

I welcome feedback and requests for topics in my expanding series.

Here's a screenshot which shows the currently available videos.
