Prompt engineering as they articulate it is a dead in the water skill.
real Prompt engineering is done using automated methods, i.e. textgrad or dspy to make sure your prompt has been optimized for 500+ iterations.
- Sherveen 1y agoThis is so wrong... there is so much surface area for people to be better at flex-prompting consumer- and enterprise-grade applications.
- Der_Einzige 1y agoThe time span between grandmaster + AI engine being better than AI chess engine was like 10 years max, likely a lot less depending on how you look at it. It's the same dynamic but shrunk by far more time due to extreme uptick. You won't ever prompt even close to better than the person who literally optimized a prompt using verifiable rewards for 500 iterations. The future will be controlled by those most effective at wielding the means of computation. Writing prompts by hand gets you the equivalent of a serf getting a shovel. Learning to wield the automation tools gets you your own castle.
