Quiz: Instruction Design
Three challenges illustrate the application of prompt engineering techniques in different scenarios. In the first, a smartphone salesperson must extract specifications to format for a database lookup using prompt creation. The second scenario involves planning a vacation, requiring prompts to gather information on the best visiting times and tourist attractions without specifying a destination. Finally, a customer service agent must craft a response to a query about a return and store credit, adhering to specific return policies. Each scenario emphasizes the importance of prompt design for accurate and relevant responses.
We'll cover the following...

Which advanced reasoning technique is best suited to improve the reliability of this existing CoT prompt?
Program-of-thoughts (PoT) prompting
Self-consistency
Tree-of-thoughts (ToT) prompting
