# Chain-of-Thought Prompting

Chain-of-Thought Prompting is a technique used to improve the reasoning abilities of large language models by prompting them to explicitly generate the intermediate reasoning steps leading to a final answer. This allows users to observe the models thought process and identify potential errors.
