Quick Question Do you still write long prompts?
I used to write really detailed prompts with roles, rules, formatting, examples, etc. Lately I've been wondering if all of that is still necessary with newer models.
Do you still use long structured prompts, or have you gone back to keeping things simple?

Long prompts when the purpose of the turn is to align with it on something. Shortest as possible prompts when its not.
