Abstract
Additive manufacturing (AM) faces several challenges in achieving efficient and defect-free printing. Although traditional machine learning (ML) has proven effective in mitigating these challenges, it requires specialized models for solving specific problems with limited scopes. Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) holds promise as a versatile tool capable of addressing multiple issues simultaneously, leveraging its expansive training data and robust problem-solving capabilities. However, getting the desired output from GenAI relies heavily on crafting effective prompts, as incorrect formulation of prompts can lead to unexpected responses. Prompt engineering is crucial for GenAI models to produce desired outputs efficiently. In our study, we explore how different prompt techniques affect the responses of GenAI tools in addressing AM problems. We examine five popular prompt engineering methods: Zero-shot, Few-shot, Chain-of-shot, React, and Directional Stimulus Prompting. We also use well-known GPT-4 models to evaluate these responses across various AM metrics.
