Zero-Shot Prompting
Ask a question or command without extra
context. Ideal for straightforward requests where
AI relies on general knowledge to produce
responses.
Sample Prompt
"What are the main principles of machine
learning? List the key concepts involved in
training a machine learning model."

Few-Shot Prompting
Provide a few examples to show the AI what you
need. Great for tasks like translation,
classifications, or pattern-based queries.
Sample Prompt
"Translate English phrases to Spanish. Example 1:
'Good morning' → 'Buenos días'. Example 2: 'Thank
you' → 'Gracias'. Translate: 'See you later.'"

Chain-of-Thought
Prompting
Encourage the AI to think through problems step-
by-step. Useful for complex tasks where
reasoning or calculations are needed for
accurate responses.
Sample Prompt
"Calculate the average speed: A car travels 150
miles in 3 hours. Show each step to find the
average speed."

Role-Based
Prompting
Assign a specific role to AI (e.g., doctor, teacher)
to generate more focused and context-
appropriate answers relevant to that perspective.
Sample Prompt
"You are a financial advisor. Provide investment
advice for someone looking to start with a low-
risk, beginner-friendly portfolio."

Persona-Based
Prompting
Define a personality or tone for AI to emulate in its
responses. Ideal for tailoring responses to specific
audiences or tones.
Sample Prompt

explaining the water cycle to a group of young
students."

Instruction-Based
Prompting
Give clear, detailed instructions to guide the AI’s
response format and structure for more specific
results.

short explanation for each. Format the response
as a numbered list."

Delimiters
Prompting
Use symbols (like “---”) to separate sections in
your prompt, adding clarity and focus for
complex requests.
Sample Prompt

only on high-level concepts without scientific
jargon."

@denis-panjuta
Repetitive
Prompting
Emphasize keywords or phrases in the prompt to
highlight specific areas of focus and improve AI
accuracy.
Sample Prompt

ways to travel internationally on a budget."

specific answer, clarifying the reasoning or
process.
