An AI practitioner is developing a prompt for an Amazon Titan model.

Chain-of-thought prompting is a prompt engineering technique where you instruct the model to explain its reasoning step by step, which is particularly useful for tasks involving logic, math, or reasoning.

A is correct: Asking the model to " explain its reasoning step by step " directly invokes chain-of-thought prompting, as documented in AWS and generative AI literature.

B is unrelated (prompt injection is a security concern).

C (few-shot) provides examples, but doesn’t specifically require step-by-step reasoning.

D (templating) is about structuring the prompt format.

" Chain-of-thought prompting elicits step-by-step explanations from LLMs, which improves performance on complex reasoning tasks. "
