Use no prior examples, and let the AI reason through the problem from scratch.

Analyze the upcoming match between the Golden State Warriors and the Miami Heat and predict the outcome.

Output:

The Golden State Warriors are predicted to win based on their strong recent performance and higher overall team stats.

3. Advanced Prompts

Combining Techniques

Combine multiple techniques for more nuanced prompts.
