About the Tech Talk
The explosive growth of AI chatbots powered by large language models (LLMs) has introduced millions to prompt engineering — writing, evaluating, and optimizing natural language prompts to coax an LLM to complete a task. Join Riley Goodside, Staff Prompt Engineer at Scale AI, as he explores the origins of prompt engineering and how it evolved alongside models, from pre-trained LLMs to instruction tuning to RLHF. He explores the effects of limited context windows in LLMs, how these limitations are addressed today, and the potential of “long context” LLMs.
