"Composing the right prompt for an AI plays a huge role in how it will respond and whether it will provide the information you seek. But prompt engineering, or knowing how to write a prompt, can be a challenging and often arcane task. Now Google is trying to make the process less mysterious. Released last week, Gemini 3 is being touted as not only smarter and faster than its predecessors but also better at coding and multimodality."
"First up, be precise and direct. Instead of writing an elaborate prompt with all kinds of suggestions and qualifiers, the KISS (keep it simple, stupid) strategy often works best. Here, Google advises you to state your goal clearly and concisely and avoid unnecessary or overly persuasive language. That doesn't mean you want to fashion your prompts to be generically short and lacking in detail. But you do want to get to the point quickly and directly."
Composing the right prompt for an AI greatly influences its responses and the information it returns. Prompt engineering can be challenging and often arcane. Gemini 3 is presented as a smarter, faster model with improved coding ability and multimodality. Multimodality enables the model to work with text, images, audio, video, and code. Google provides practical tips for phrasing prompts and interacting with the model. Recommended techniques include keeping prompts simple and direct, stating goals clearly and concisely, avoiding unnecessary persuasive language, rephrasing prompts when needed, and controlling how the model should respond while including necessary detail.
