# Prompt Engineering - an Art, a Science, or your next Job Title?


- **Date:** Friday, Jul 19, 2024
- **Time:** 16:20–16:50 (30 min)
- **Room:** STAGE 2 (500)
- **Event:** World Congress 2024

## Description

It's quite ironic that to interact with the most advanced AI in our history - Large Language Models: ChatGPT, etc. - we must use human language, not programming one. But how to get the most out of this dialogue i.e. how to create robust and efficient prompts so AI returns exactly what's needed for your solution on the first try? After my session, you can add the Junior (at least) Prompt Engineer skill to your CV: I will introduce Prompt Engineering as an emerging discipline with its own methodologies, tools, and best practices. Expect lots of examples that will help you to write ideal prompts for all occasions.
