[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone catch the Fareed Zakaria interview today with Hoffman on the impact of AI on job market/new world order with AI, and that yrs the “revenge of the English major” - meaning it’s a valuable major now in a world where other tasks are commoditized and diminished in value? [/quote] I watched it. His point was that English majors (and equivalent humanities majors) are better at crafting prompts than STEM folks. Generative AI is fueled by natural language prompts, so the ability to translate various business needs into clear, effective prompts is crucial to the success of AI.[/quote] Outside of coding, you have to think what kind of jobs will be needed in a post-AI economy or world. Who has the skills to survive when 90% of today’s job descriptions can be done using prompts.[/quote]
