AI development and prompt engineering are debated as experimental archaeology

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

Two related posts from the same Mastodon user discuss the nature of AI development and prompt engineering. The first post critiques the idea that an 'architect' title equates to true systems judgment, arguing that valuable architectural decisions often come from individuals lower in the organizational hierarchy. The second post likens prompt engineering to a debugging phase for an opaque language, comparing the process to experimental archaeology on a black box rather than skilled instruction. AI

    'Prompt engineering' is just the debugging phase of a language you can't see the grammar of. You're not writing instructions, you're doing experimental archaeology on a black box, and calling the lucky incantations a skill. # AI # MachineLearning # LLM # Threadverse # Tech
