"Name a specific expert persona for AI During a live discussion on how persona prompting affects AI output quality, the speaker shared that simply telling a model to "be a good software engineer" no longer changes its performance on modern models. However, prompting it to "adopt the persona of Peter Norvig and write code in Peter Norvig style" reliably produces output resembling Norvig's actual published work because that specific entity exists richly in the training data. When prompting AI for high-quality specialized output, swap generic role labels for the name of a real, prolific expert whose work is well-represented in training data.
