"Write a code review summary."
"Summarize this code review focusing only on potential security vulnerabilities in the authentication logic."

Prompting Limitations & Constraints

Understanding the boundaries and reliability limits of current Agentic Systems.

Context Window Fragmentation

The finite token limit of transformer architectures prevents the model from "remembering" the beginning of massive documents while processing the end.

Impact: Leads to "lost in the middle" phenomena in long-form reports.

Structured Frameworks

Mnemonic frameworks serve as standardized "pre-flight checklists" for prompting determinism.

  • RISEN
    Role, Input, Steps, Expectation, Narrowing
    General-purpose tasks requiring clear process articulation.
  • CARE
    Context, Action, Requirements, Examples
    High-control enterprise environments and RAG pipelines to ensure determinism.
  • RACE
    Role, Audience, Constraints, Execution Plan
    Strategic planning and executive communications where reasoning depth is paramount.
  • TAG
    Task, Action, Goal
    Rapid, high-signal prompting for content creation and email drafting.
  • ERA
    Expectation, Role, Action
    Scenario-based training and conversational agent setup.

Agentic AI gains momentum as banks increasingly automate operations

Banks are entering a new phase of artificial intelligence adoption, moving beyond chatbots to deploy AI that can autonomously execute complex, multi-step tasks. Recent announcements from HSBC and OCBC highlight how AI is becoming a strategic differentiator, with banks embedding the technology deeper into their operating models.

Singapore banks using AI to vet private banking clients, speed up onboarding

Prospective private banking customers can now expect their account applications to be processed faster, as Singapore banks put agentic artificial intelligence to work behind the scenes. OCBC announced on July 29 that with its new HELIOS agentic AI platform, private banking accounts can be opened in 15 business days, compared with more than 30 previously.

Prompt Engineering

Are we moving beyond prompt engineering? : r/PromptEngineering

The more I work with AI systems, the more it feels like prompts are only one piece of the puzzle, as the bigger engineering challenge is designing how an agent reasons through a task. This shift in focus is being referred to by some as Loop Engineering, where the emphasis is on how an agent plans, uses tools, evaluates its own work, and recovers from failures.
