What is Zero Shot Prompting?
Zero-shot prompting is a prompt engineering method that relies on the pretraining of a large language model (LLM) to infer an appropriate response. In contrast to other prompt engineering methods, such as few-shot prompting, models aren’t provided with examples of output when prompting with the zero-shot technique.
