@Wiobyrne Right now, it's about understanding language. It used to be about understanding math. But now we have language models. But it wouldn't make sense to assume that this is where everything stops.
@Downes agreed. I just had this discussion on Facebook. It'll advance over time, and what makes sense at one point will change as technologies change.
I come from a literacy perspective, but I think there is a need for a "meta" level understanding and framing of these concepts as they progress.

Bottom line: Treat prompt engineering like any other professional skill.
Who else has noticed this pattern? What's your experience?
