Mermaid Mind Map: Prompt Engineering

Section 6 — Artifacts, Interactive Visuals & Claude Design

Mermaid Mind Map: Prompt Engineering

A visual mind map showing that prompt engineering spans text, image, video, audio, and agentic AI — not just chatbots.

Starter Prompt

Create a Mermaid mind map showing the major areas of prompt engineering, including text, image, video, audio, and agentic AI.


Expanded Prompt

Create a Mermaid mind map that explains the major areas of prompt engineering for a beginner-friendly AI course.

Goal

Design a clear, useful mind map showing that prompt engineering applies across many types of AI systems — not just text tools like ChatGPT. Help learners see the full landscape of where prompting skills are useful.

Tips for Refining

  • “Render this as an HTML artifact with the diagram displayed inline”
  • “Add a branch for code generation prompts”
  • “Collapse the branches to show only the top-level categories”
  • “Convert this into a flowchart instead”
