"Artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots driven by large language models (LLMs), like ChatGPT, offer opportunities to improve efficiency in imaging informatics use cases. However, simple prompts for these models do not always return desired responses and poorly designed prompts may predispose to limitations associated with LLMs, such as model hallucination. Prompt engineering is the process of designing effective prompts that generate high-quality, clear, and accurate responses. Learning about ... Read More
