Artificial intelligence (AI) is intelligence demonstrated by machines, unlike the natural intelligence displayed by humans and animals, which involves consciousness and emotionality. The distinction between the former and the latter categories is often revealed by the acronym chosen.

100% prompt engineering was made up by grifters to sell consultations, classes, books, etc.
calling it engineering is frankly an affront to anyone who's gone to an engineering college, or studied technical vocations where engineers are important.
In any competitive, expensive field, It is easier to teach a professional to prompt, than a prompter the profession. Same as it is easier to teach a chemical engineer to work Excel, than it is to teach an excel wiz chemical engineering.
LLMs with chain of thought reasoning are already making the whole thing irrelevant by promoting themselves. The industry is rapidly replacing the so called, "promt engineers."
