Who would have known? Asking AI things was never a real job?!

Maybe not just prompt engineer, but that skill will be required among other to effectively utilize many AI tools since the low-code/no-code capabilities are not quite there yet.
The audacity of using the word “engineer” is galling enough.
There are already tools and other AI to write the prompt for you. The prompt engineer is automated out of their job.
I am a prompt engineer, I show up to work on time
Real or not, I still say not calling it “AI Wrangler” is a major miss…
This article also does not provide any proof that prompt engineer was not a real job.
It is a real job. You don’t make 6 figures doing it. There are multiple websites: outlier.ai, dataannotation.tech, joinstellar.ai that pay people to train LLMs. Usually for $20-$40 /hour.
Training is not prompting
It does a pretty poor job explaining itself, at all. Ironically, it probably would have behooved the author to have used an AI to proofread this.
The hype did not magic the jobs into existence. Because this was all part of marketing chatbots to the enterprise. They wanted companies to believe in the magic of chatbots.
This is a full paragraph from the article. What the fuck is this trying to say? Who is “they”? Literally no questions were answered by this article.
maybe “they” refers to those who have most to gain from all the ai bullshit. So likely executives in chatgpt for example. If the writers named something directly it could leave them open for lawsuit if things go badly

So far, I don’t think the author is capable of writing something coherent enough to be considered libel.
How do you prove a negative?
By using the definition of the word or asking people for their opinion
A multimeter on DC.
In this case? Pretty easily with the right data. Though I think an opinion poll would be more interesting
I mean, a few months back somebody posted a linkedin, mad because they were looking for a prompt engineer, so apparently it is a real job.
Sounds like a project manager that can talk to engineers…
I have people skills!
Well, it IS linkedin, so it’s mostly just corpos bullshitting each other anyway.
