Input for an AI model used to elicit a particular response, such as a question in plain language, a set of keywords, or an image. Prompts provide context and/or instruction to a model, and their quality influences the results it returns. For example, users' questions for tools like Google or ChatGPT generate different responses based on even seemingly-minor word choices or order.
"Our most effective researchers stand out not because of their existing knowledge so much as how good they are at writing the best prompts for Google or ChatGPT to get what they need."
