San Diego State University Exploring Professional Writing Styles through AI A Comprehensive Analysis

Overview: In this project, you will engage in AI prompt engineering, using your insights from Project #1 to craft prompts aimed at generating specific types of responses from an AI language model. These prompts should be related to writing in your field. 

Objectives:

To apply an understanding of professional writing styles in crafting AI prompts.

To explore and evaluate the capabilities of AI in replicating various professional writing styles.

Assignment Requirements:

Prompt Creation:

• Develop 10 unique prompts that are designed to elicit responses in the style of the professional writing analyzed in the previous project.
• Each prompt should be clear and concise, typically no more than 2-3 sentences in length.

AI Interaction and Response Recording:

Test each prompt with an AI language model.

Record the AI’s responses, ensuring they are of sufficient length to evaluate the model’s performance, typically around 100-150 words per response.

1. Analysis of AI Responses:

For each AI-generated response, provide an analysis of its effectiveness in mimicking the intended writing style.

Each analysis should be approximately 200-300 words, focusing on aspects such as accuracy, relevance to the prompt, style emulation, and coherence.

• Comparative Evaluation:
• Conclude with a comparative evaluation (500-700 words) of all the prompts and responses, discussing the overall performance of the AI in replicating professional writing styles.

1. Reflect on the strengths and limitations of using AI for this purpose.

Ethical and Practical Considerations:

Include a section discussing the ethical implications and practical applications of using AI in professional writing contexts.

• Deliverables:
• A comprehensive report detailing the prompts, AI responses, individual analyses, comparative evaluation, and a section on ethical and practical considerations
