Prompt Engineering (ChatGPT)
What are some important facts about ChatGPT?
- Outputs are not deterministic in general - ChatGPT can remember previous prompts/answers. (It may forget, but to clear memory you should start a new chat) - The answer quality depends on your prompts - ChatGPT can make mistakes and the answers should not be treated as factual or up-to-date content
In order to refine your answers you can...
- Re-ask questions to clarify certain points - Ask for more answers - Suggest alternative solutions (compare multiple solutions) - Elaborate on certain points
When looking for a summary of information..
- Specify the important elements to summarize - Specify the elements that can be ignored
The best practices for ChatGPT is...
1. Setting the ground rules 2. Be specific 3. Provide the context 4. Offer extra information (be careful about sensitive, copyrighted, and protected inputs). 5. Ask follow-up questions
GPT gives..
AI apps the ability to generate text and is one of the largest neural networks, with hundreds of billions of parameters
Auditing is needed because...
ChatGPT makes mistakes and the content is not always based in fact.
The Turing Test (1950)
If judge cannot reliably tell machine from human, machine has passed test.
Kasparov vs. IBM's Deep Blue (1997)
The first time a machine won versus a world champion.
Best practices are to..
Use it as a starting point for idea generation and how to do things rather than what to do.
ChatGPT is...
a chatbot app powered by GPT.
GPT is...
a large language model (LLM)
ChatGPT still has...
biases and stereotypes because the model does better with English and is skewed towards a western view. It can even reinforce a user's biases over the course of interaction. These biases may unfairly judge students learning English as a second language.
Have ChatGPT ask you (blank) for higher quality answers.
clarifying questions
In regards to ownership the user...
does not own the produced content given by ChatGPT (e.g. NYT suing OpenAI for taking their content from their paid services things that are copyrighted)
Generic questions often...
lead to generic answers.
ChatGPT relies...
on a set of GPT's parameters, optimized for dialogue, and has content filters.
OpenAI's ChatGPT has one privacy setting to help train their model you can...
opt-out of so your conversations are not used
Nvidia in 2007...
realized they could use their GPU for a general purpose
The progression of Artificial Intelligence is from...
the 1950s to now.
AlphaGo vs. Lee Sedol (2016) signifies...
the use of historical human data, but then Google added reinforcement learning and allowed the algorithms to play the game by itself without human intervention so it got much more powerful.
The burden of originality falls onto...
the user to prove their own work and prevent themselves from taking copyrighted content
Jailbreak prompts should be...
used with extreme care and should not be used for any malicious purposes or to create any offensive/harmful content
