LLM · Prompting and Reliability¶
Explore the capabilities, limits, and engineering mitigations of prompt engineering, CoT, and hallucinations.
Keep one question in mind: is an unreliable answer caused by an unclear task, an incorrect intermediate calculation, or a factual claim without evidence? The three chapters address prompts and constraints, reasoning and verification, and factuality and selective answering. Longer prompts, more reasoning, and attached citations do not automatically guarantee correctness.
Chapters¶
