Prompt engineering on the verge of extinction 

Share post:

According to Don Giannatti, prompt engineering, the process of designing, crafting, and formulating effective, clear, and specific instructions or queries that guide AI models in generating desired outputs or responses, is on the verge of extinction in a relatively short time.

Giannatti says as AI becomes smarter and better understands human words and phrases, the need for precisely crafted prompts will diminish. Furthermore, AI is now capable of creating its own prompts, making the human expertise of prompt engineering less important, and prompts are not universally applicable as factors in the downfall of prompt engineering.

AI, according to Giannattii, can now understand our words and phrases in the same manner that humans do. They no longer require well-written prompts; instead, they may generate their own by just asking a question. The need for quick engineering is diminishing as AI progresses and learns on its own.

Furthermore, the introduction of GPT4 and the upcoming GPT5 has given AI systems the capacity to provide complex and contextually relevant suggestions with minimum input. This is compounded by the fact that prompts are not uniformly relevant. They are limited in their adaptability since they are suited to certain AI models and versions.
