Comment on Ask HN: How do you feel about the term “Prompt Engineering?”

Comments

I don’t understand the complexity of it, so it’s hard for me to judge. The leaked prompts I’ve seen so far don’t seem that special at all. The engineering went into creating something that anyone can use.

I feel that any engineering endeavor needs to have at least some understanding of the underlying mechanics of what’s going on, but since a lot of obvious prompts “just work” the task isn’t mature enough to deserve any special designation.
