Definition and meaning
Prompt engineering is the practice of crafting and refining the instructions given to an AI system in order to produce better, more accurate, or more useful outputs. A well-engineered prompt provides clear context, specifies the desired format, and sets constraints that guide the model toward the intended result. In the context of presentation tools, prompt engineering determines how effectively a user can instruct an AI to generate the right slide structure, tone, and content — making it a practical skill for anyone working with generative AI tools.
