How to use this book
We believe the best way to use this book is to follow the chapters in order.
Chapter 2, with the prompting strategies, is the most important chapter in the book. These patterns and strategies are referred to throughout the book and are the foundation for how to use AI assistants effectively and responsibly.
The book is written in the following format:
- Introduction: The first chapter aims to provide you with an overview of what this book is about, its goals, and who it is for.
- Prompt strategy: The idea is to lay the foundation on how to break down problems within the domains of data science and web development. From this chapter, you will learn strategies you can adopt for your own problems.
- Tools of the trade: The third chapter introduces you to our tools, GitHub Copilot and ChatGPT, what they are, how they work, and how to install them. However, the book is written in such a way that you can take any of the prompts we suggest and feed those into any AI assistant, and get a similar experience.
- The remaining chapters of the book show how we use the prompt strategies from Chapter 2 and apply them to various domains from web development to data science and machine learning.
