Anthropic’s team dropped a full deep-dive on prompt engineering. What stood out to you?

I stumbled on this long-form convo with the team behind Anthropic’s prompt engineering — and honestly, it’s the most grounded, practical breakdown I’ve seen so far.

Amanda Askell, Alex Albert, Zack Witten, and David Hershey go deep into how they actually think about prompting — not just tricks, but stuff like using metaphors, designing personas, understanding model reasoning, and adapting prompts for research vs enterprise use.

There’s also a bunch of underrated gems — like how they refine prompts over time, what “good prompting” really looks like, and how they deal with jailbreaking and edge cases.

It’s a goldmine if you’re building anything with AI — especially if you’ve been feeling like prompt engineering is still mostly guesswork.
