Technique 3: Metacognitive Scaffolding Instead of asking for an answer, engineers ask the model to explain its reasoning process BEFORE generating. This catches logical errors at the planning stage. Template: Before you [generate output], first:

Multi-Shot Technique with Failure Cases

Technique 2: Multi-Shot with Failure Cases Everyone uses examples. Engineers show the model what NOT to do. This creates boundaries that few-shot alone can't establish. Template: Task: [what you want] Good example:
[correct output] Bad example:

Constraint Techniques for Prompts

Technique 1: Constraint-Based Prompting Most prompts are too open-ended. Engineers add strict constraints that force the model into a narrower solution space, eliminating 80% of poor outputs before they occur. Template: Generate [output] with these non-negotiable constraints:

Dense Models Beat MoE: Western AI Companies Strategic Shift
By
–
It's a big macro trend shift as they revert back to old dense models, while still comparable or better than MoE baselines. "Leak" because the big Western companies figured it out a while ago, letting the OSS community & China go down the MoE path — notably more complex + ~worse
