Prompt engineering, the practice of carefully crafting inputs for large language models (LLMs) to achieve desired outputs, is presented as a crucial initial step in leveraging AI capabilities. While effective for many tasks, prompt engineering eventually hits limitations such as plateauing performance, the need for constant prompt adjustments, and prompt bloat. When these issues arise, fine-tuning the model itself becomes a more viable, though more resource-intensive, option for specialized tasks, especially when dealing with narrow domains and sufficient labeled data.
