The US add engineer to everything to sound most prestigious than they are. If you sell your service as a AI prompt writer, you get paid peanuts. If you sell the same service as AI prompt engineer, the C-Suites cream their pants.

So you're telling me that people advertise themselves as AI programmers? That does not seem like something to brag about in such a manner

Yeah right?

I've found it helpful in learning things about languages I'm unfamiliar with, but it seems like saying "I'm an AI programmer" means "I don't really know what I'm doing in this language, I'm still learning." Which I suppose shows a willingness to learn, but that's about it.

Lots of people think that computers are magic box. And now a diffuse entity in the cloud talk to them? Big heads will gobble that shit up.
