Because prompts are too general to solve most problems. Prompt: "Calculate the average price of Milk" This is far too vague to be useful. Prompt: "Calculate the average Price of Milk between the years 2020 and 2022." A little better but still vague Prompt: "Calculate the average Price in US Dollars of 1 Gallon of Whole Milk in the US between the years 2020 and 2022." Is pretty good. For more complex tasks you obviously need much more complicated prompts and may even include one-shot learning examples to get the desired output.
