There is no engineering involved in using AI. It's insulting to call begging an LLM "engineering".

This. Convincing a bullshit generator to give you the right data isn’t engineering, it quackery. But I guess “context quackery” wouldn’t sell as much.

LLMs are quite useful and I leverage them all the time. But I can’t stand these AI yappers saying the same shit over and over again in every media format and trying to sell AI usage as some kind of profound wizardry when it’s not.
