Yeah I could see one day, many years from now, programming being less important due to how good AI is. But that would be many years off, and I can’t imagine both that we’re going to have AI so good it can actually replace developers and that “prompt engineering” would be necessary for anything other than malicious abuses of an AI.
Prompt engineering as a profession doesn’t make sense if programming doesn’t. If prompt engineering is so complex as to need speciality professionals to execute it how is that functionally different to programming in a different language?
