my notes ( ? )

"Here are the most important techniques you need for prompting:...

Assign a role ... “You are an expert in X... You must always ask questions before you answer so you can better understand what the questioner is seeking"
use CoT (Chain of Thought): give the LLM an example of your reasoning and then get it to repeat the reasoning - eg give it a Question and and Answer, with the Answer explaining how it is calculated, and then give it another Question following a similar structure.
Zero-shot-CoT, where in Zero-shot means there's no "additional training within the prompt", by ending the promt with "Let's think step by step"
Few-shot (and few-shot-CoT), where you include "a few examples in the prompt for it to more quickly adapt to new examples
Use Few-shot to generate knowledge, and then ask questions about it (a "knowledge augmented’ question")
Least to Most (LtM): "break problem down into subproblems"
