Five Pillars of Prompting is a guidebook from a workshop on prompt engineering, specifically tailored for using AI systems like ChatGPT.

The author, Claude Needham, outlines five key principles for crafting effective prompts: providing context, showing appreciation, being clear and concise, being polite, and fully engaging. These principles, when applied, are designed to foster a collaborative and respectful interaction with AI, ultimately yielding more relevant and personalized responses.

The guidebook encourages readers to practice these techniques through various exercises, culminating in the creation of their own prompts.
