[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]the best job in tech is a PM - and prompt engineering will be critical skill for that role going forward despite what our resident lax bro believes [/quote]
prompt engineering isn't a thing anymore.  companies expect all their workers to be able to "prompt" AI now.

[quote]Two years ago, prompt engineering was one of the buzziest jobs in tech, fetching salaries of up to $200,000 on the promise of becoming any company’s “AI Whisperer.”

Now, [b]the role is basically obsolete thanks to the breakneck speed of AI development and companies’ own maturity in terms of understanding how to use the technology. [/b]

The concept of prompt engineers was to have an expert crafting the exact right inputs to generate the best responses out of large language models. But today, AI models are much better at intuiting user intent and they can ask follow-up questions when they’re unclear on it.

Also,[b] companies say they are training a wide range of employees across functions on how best to prompt and use models, so there’s not much of a need for a single person to hold this expertise.[/b][/quote][/quote]
