- Scaling laws for hardware, data and compute
- Competing to be safest AI solutions, safety-first organization
- Leader in jailbreak resistance
- Interpretability features and breakthroughs for AI models
- Basics of prompt engineering
- Improving prompts with Claude
- Details matter – small changes to spelling, context will greatly improve results
- System prompt – role setting will improve results (i.e. “You are an expert mathematician…” for math query
- Be clear and direct – use XML tags where possible
- Encourage Claude to think step-by-step – answering fast comes with accuracy risk
- Use examples to provide additional clarity to Claude
- Bonus tips for image-based prompt engineering
- Q&A 1) Who wrote the meta-prompts in the cookbook?
