Comment on Shortwave: A GPT-3-powered front end for Gmailparent

Comments

As mentioned by Sam Altman, prompt engineering probably has a very short window. By this he says that very shortly (GPT-4?) AI won’t need specific keywords in the prompt to understand what you want. Natural language will be all you need.

I don’t see how this would work unless AI can read my mind. Humans are by default very imprecise with language, hence prompt engineering.

Only if we stretch the term to mean “clearly communicating”. The point is that you won’t need to add keywords to the prompt to “trick” the AI.
