Exploring Meta Prompting: How to Generate Prompts That Create More Prompts
In a recent experiment, David Shapiro delved into the fascinating concept of meta prompting—an approach where prompts are crafted to generate new prompts, effectively creating a recursive chain of instructions. This technique isn’t entirely new; it echoes the principles of infinite state machines from early computing, where each instruction determines the next, enabling endless recursion. But applying this idea to modern language models like GPT-3 opens intriguing possibilities for automating and expanding creative and problem-solving workflows.
