Reliable prompts for AI applications consistently follow a four-part structure: defining a role, specifying a task, outlining constraints, and dictating the output format. This structured approach has been found to outperform vague prompts, even when using less powerful AI models. The effectiveness of specific prompts has been demonstrated across various AI tasks, including classification, extraction, and chain-of-thought reasoning. AI
