Building the Foundation: Your Pathway to Mastery in Prompt Engineering
Greetings, courageous adventurer! You are about to embark on an intriguing journey through the domain of AI prompt engineering, poised to
learn, experiment, and innovate. This series serves as your compass, a powerful guide that will navigate you from novice to adept. Remember, each stride on this journey is a steppingstone towards mastering prompt engineering, a skill that you are absolutely capable of acquiring.
Though some of the initial codes are from my book on prompt engineering (revised edition will be released by the end of the month), the basic concepts of prompt engineering remain the same.
We will apply these principles while using Bedrock and the foundation models to develop real-life products. Follow along with me here and other places where I will share my own product development experience.
I am on a mission to build a tribe of AI product developers so that you rule the job market, not the other way around. A sure path to get a job fast if you follow along with me. I believe in you, and I am thrilled to walk alongside you on this exhilarating journey. Your fundamentals will be solid, your knowledge expansive, and your future as a prompt engineering expert bright. Here’s to the journey ahead, and the mastery that awaits at the end!
