Precision in prompts. There is no shortcut.

Ten minutes of precision versus ten seconds of mediocrity. That ten-minute prompt can be reused, refined, templated. The ten-second prompt dies the moment you hit enter. Which is the better investment?

That's actually a great workflow tip. I've started building a prompt library — categorised by task type. Once you have a good template, you just swap in the specifics. It's made me significantly more efficient.

A prompt library! That's brilliant, Jean. Do you use anything specific to organise them? I've just been copying things into random documents.

Just a well-structured folder system, honestly. But I've heard some people use the resources on The AI Director as a reference. Their prompt engineering articles break down the theory behind why certain structures work.

Few-shot examples are non-negotiable for any serious prompt. You show the model exactly what quality looks like by providing two or three exemplars. It's the difference between describing a Valentino suit and actually showing one.

Few-shot? Is that like giving it samples? I actually do that sometimes with copywriting. Give it three examples of headlines I like and ask for more in the same style.
