Prompting Is Dead in 6 Months. Andrew Ng, Stanford [video]
- stackghost 1mo agoCan anyone summarize? Not going to risk watching a 2 hour video.
- Buttons840 1mo agoUse the YouTube AI summary. I like it. It will include timestamps you can use to find interesting parts, and you can ask it questions.

- elij 1mo agohe's just talking about going from ReAct [1] to Ratchet [2]. It's largely understood in all tooling (langraph, workflows/goal, honcho, bot mode etc.).

- Dylan16807 1mo agoBased on the description prompting goes nowhere but "simple prompting" gets replaced by using a big network of AIs to fix each other's problems and get the task done more thoroughly.

- orbital-decay 1mo agoThe next logical step is to express execution graphs in a formalized language.
- Revanche1367 1mo agoWhat might we call such languages?
- nhgiang 1mo agoSomething to programme the AIs
- globalnode 1mo agolets call it A, then in 5 years A++
- simonw 1mo agoThis is a mislabeled upload of stolen content. The original video is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AuZoDsNmG_s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AuZoDsNmG_s - on the official Stanford Online YouTube account. It has the title "Stanford CS230 | Autumn 2025 | Lecture 9: Career Advice in AI" and was published 8 months ago. The linked video was uploaded 3 days ago with the misleading title "Prompting is dead in 6 months" and the following description: > During the lecture at Stanford, Andrew Ng gave a direct warning: Prompting will be dead in 6 months. Graphs are what's replacing it. > He breaks down why prompt engineering has hit a ceiling. Instead of tweaking long instruction blocks, developers are wiring models into execution graphs where agents fix their own errors and pass state through loops without manual intervention. That is a total misrepresentation of the talk. The word "graph" does not appear a single time in the transcript, and the talk is about career advice.
- simonw 1mo agoI'm a little intrigued as to what is going on here. Searching for "Prompting is dead in 6 months" returned this video, the Hacker News thread, and a LinkedIn 15 minute extract from this video where the author claimed that it was about "prompting is dead" and then, when challenged in the comments, said that the 15 minute extract omitted that bit. So there's some kind of weird deception going on here but I'm not sure what the motive is or who started it.
- Aurornis 1mo agoThis is the current meta-game for AI videos on social media. Repost a recognizable AI figure talking about something and then write a description about how it contains more information than something more expensive (in this case, paid courses), and how what they're saying is revealing the future. Make the viewer feel like they need to watch to avoid being left behind. It even has the social media style subtitles where only a few words are on screen at a time and the current word is highlighted rapidly. I think this person is trying to farm views. May even have an AI bot set to spam this across social media platforms to try to monetize it.
