Why we call this prompt "engineering"? The prompt is just a way to interact with the whatever ML model is behind... in that regard it's similar SQL or any other interface. Sure thing I've never heard of "SQL engineering" or something like that.
- nerdponx 4y agoThe term "feature engineering" is already in widespread use. It's just machine learning jargon.
- sebzim4500 4y ago> I've never heard of "SQL engineering" You probably would if people regularly had 4000 character SQL queries.
- meltyness 4y agoPresumably because it's an iterative and intricate process to tease the desired response out of these systems. Given SQL queries are software, I'm sure you've heard of software engineering. See also https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34521149 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34521149
