During the [[inference]] of a [[large language model]] like [[ChatGPT]], when a user enters a [[prompt]] as the input, the creator of the [[language model]], like [[OpenAI]], often customizes the user's input by concatenating their own prompt before the start of the user's prompt. The creator's prompt is like a set of instructions that is hidden from the user, providing context like tone, point of view, objective, length etc.
