Much of it is just "put this magic string before your prompt to make the LLM 10x better" voodoo, similar to the SEO voodoo common in the 2000s.

just remember that it works the same for everyone: you input text, magic happens, text comes out.

if you can properly explain a software engineering problem in plain language, you're an expert in using LLMs. everything on top of that people experimenting or trying to build the next big thing.
