What is Structured vs. Unstructured Data? Key Differences, Uses, and Challenges

Data is classified into two main types: structured and unstructured. Structured data refers to organized information that follows a predefined format and resides in fixed fields within a record or file. Structured data is easily searchable, organized, and can be stored in databases. Unstructured...

Zero-Shot vs. Few-Shot Prompting: Comparison and Examples

Whenever you interact with a large language model (LLM), the model’s output is only as good as your input. If you offer the AI a poor prompt, you’ll limit the quality of its response. So it’s important to understand zero-shot and few-shot prompting as you can use these techniques to get better...
