Comment on Prompting Is Dead in 6 Months. Andrew Ng, Stanford [video]

Can anyone summarize? Not going to risk watching a 2 hour video.

he'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.).

Based 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.

Use the YouTube AI summary. I like it. It will include timestamps you can use to find interesting parts, and you can ask it questions.

Copy and paste the transcript. A bit of effort but it's well worth it for these kinds of things.
