While it's fascinating to work directly with a Large Language Model, such as ChatGPT, it takes some skill and practice to learn how to prompt it effectively. My colleague Farooq Ali has been working on a co-pilot tool, Boba AI, for using an LLM to help generate ideas for product strategy. From this experience he as proposed eight patterns which he judges will be generally useful for building these kinds of AI co-pilot applications.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.
