[[Chain of Thought Prompting]] (CoT prompting) is a technique introduced by Wei et al. (2022) to generate a sequence of short sentences describing step-by-step reasoning, known as [[reasoning chains]] or [[rationales]], leading to the final answer. [[CoT prompting]] is particularly useful for complex reasoning tasks when applied to large language models (e.g., those with over 50 billion parameters), while simpler tasks may benefit only marginally.
