Prompt engineering is the practice of designing instructions and context that help a generative AI system perform a task reliably. A strong prompt clarifies the objective, audience, constraints, source material, desired format, and what the model should do when information is missing. Examples can demonstrate expected behavior, while structured sections make complex requests easier to follow. Prompting cannot add knowledge the model lacks or guarantee factual accuracy, and techniques may behave differently across model versions. Production prompts are treated like other application components: they are versioned, tested against representative and adversarial cases, measured for quality and cost, and paired with retrieval, validation, permissions, or human review when needed.
