Purpose: Help users practice new ways of imagining and formulating queries.
Criteria:
- Are there default example searches?
- Do default example searches have contextually relevant explanation on sourcing?
- Is there a "searchable repository of examples"?
Details:
Research suggests that effective prompting of LLMs can be challenging (Zamfirescu-Pereira et al., 2023) and query formulation even in mainstream web search engines is complicated (Tripodi, 2018). Mollick (2023), not specifically re search systems, has called for “large-scale public libraries of prompts”. Mollick, E. (2023). One useful thing.
