YC on the key prompting techniques used by the best AI startups:

Page 2:

I teach about this stuff daily to AI devs and get to apply it in lots of kinds of applications.
I agree with the YC crew that meta-prompting is a really powerful technique used by many AI startups and devs.
As the models get better, the results keep improving when applying metaprompting. Reasoning models accelerate it further.
I use all the other tips discussed in the session, including a few others I discuss in my courses and live sessions. Don't underestimate the power of prompt engineering when building these AI agents.
Here are the notes if you want them: docs.google.com/document/d/11t…
