OpenAI launches a practical guide to better prompting
OpenAI’s new Prompting Fundamentals guide offers a friendly, example-driven introduction to writing prompts that get better results from ChatGPT. Designed for a wide audience—from curious beginners to power users—the guide breaks down core principles and shows how simple changes in wording and structure can noticeably improve responses.
