Prompt Engineering
## 1. Each AI Provider Demands a Different Approach
Prompt engineering looks simple until you switch models. Each provider has its own prompt format, preferred style, and hidden quirks. What works well for one model can fail on another, and small changes in phrasing can swing results dramatically.
### Examples of Major Model Providers
### OpenAI Models
**Required Style**: Conversational, natural-language instructions with clear role definitions.
**Official Documentation**: https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/prompt-engineering
**Recommended Format**:when to use it
Community prompt sourced from the open-source GitHub repo saibhaskerraju/dspy-optimization (Apache-2.0). A "Prompt Engineering" style prompt — adapt the placeholders and specifics to your task. Imported as-is and not independently retested here, so check the output before relying on it.
