A Microsoft-maintained collection of prompt engineering resources, best practices, and example Python scripts for eliciting top performance from foundation models like GPT-4. It hosts the Medprompt methodology (dynamic few-shot selection, self-generated chain of thought, and choice-shuffle ensembling) with benchmark results across MMLU, GSM8K, and other evaluations.

Use cases

  • improve gpt-4 accuracy with prompting techniques
  • learn medprompt methodology
  • benchmark llm prompting strategies
  • apply chain-of-thought and few-shot prompting
  • replicate medprompt+ benchmark results
  • study prompt engineering best practices

When to choose

  • you want proven prompting techniques like Medprompt with benchmark-backed results
  • you need example scripts for few-shot selection and chain-of-thought ensembling
  • you are researching how prompting compares to fine-tuning

When to avoid

  • you need a production prompt management or deployment tool
  • you want a maintained library with an API rather than example scripts
  • you work with small local models where these techniques may not transfer
