eestileib,

Oh for Pete’s sake, how far are they going to try to push this LLM parlor trick?

“Prompt engineering” what the fuck.

MoonlitCringe,

(preface: I’m stupid, be kind)

I really wanna know what statistics they are referring to when they say prompt engineers are becoming more and more sought after.

It might just be my own ignorance but I find it insane that this much flare is being used to describe people who write word real good.

Ajen,

It’s a popsci article, they probably made up the stats.

Bluescluestoothpaste,

I mean, if you can use LLMs effectively it kind of makes you a god in the workplace. The thing will write the goddamn code for you. I don’t really know much about programming but since i started asking open.ai to do stuff for me ive automated 90% of my work and created api programs which i have zero experience with. It’s not the same as writing skills, you get a hang for writing specifically so the ai will do what you want.

MoonlitCringe,

Until the code doesn’t work.

I think AI code generation is a great tool for a lot of people, but it’s like if stack overflow could talk to you. You can get some great answers but unless you understand what you’re copying and pasting then when it breaks you’re up shits creek.

That’s mainly why I think this prompt engineer stuff is a load of rubbish, if you’re at the point of knowing how to ask for complicated code, then you might as well write it yourself.

But I just got back from the pub so ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Daefsdeda,

But when getting errors or anything, you can return them to chatgpt and he will correct it.

I once sent an error of a python script he made and he noticed that my company was using an older version so he corrected it.

But I still needed to be able to read code to actually make it function in my specific thing.

Bluescluestoothpaste,

Well, yeah it’s not going to replace actual programmers (yet), but for the rest of us who just use like salesforce and excel it’s super helpful.
