Using GenAI effectively means asking good questions or specifying precise instructions, a task known as prompt engineering. In this session, instructors Catherine Sanders Reach of the North Carolina Bar Association and Valerie McConnell of Thomson Reuters will give you some practical skills needed to use GenAI by crafting effective prompts.
By the end of this webinar participants will be able to:
- Understand the basics of prompt engineering,
- Learn best practices for writing effective prompts,
- Understand common challenges and solutions in legal AI prompting, and
- Apply AI prompting techniques to legal and court-specific cases.
Following the webinar, participants will receive access to a sandbox where they can practice prompt engineering in a safe environment.
