      So because I use chatgpt for help coding data analysis scripts, I am no longer a mechanical engineer?

        No, you are a mechanical engineer that uses AI.

        “Prompt Engineer” is a “real” job title

          Except it’s not used as a job title to describe people prompting Midjourney lol. A prompt engineer is a software engineer who specifically deals with LLM workflows.

              yeah and we all know there is only the one type of software engineer. It would be ridiculous to separate them into categories depending on whether they work on frontend, backend, embedded lmao

                Sure, but those other things are skills. If they want me to respect their title they can have a respectable title.

                  I’m not sure what you mean. Integrating LLMs in a codebase requires the use of specific tools. Sure it’s not as established and wide ranging as “frontend” but it’s still something that you need to learn and work on if you want to do it well. Kind of like, you know, a skill.

                    Sure, and as intelligent and skilled professionals they can come up with something that sounds like they don’t do all of their actual work on LinkedIn.

        As long, as you don’t proclaim your proficiency in utilising generative AI as your only claim to the term. It’s fine.

        I’d say that depends on how important data analysis is to the job of mechanical engineer, and the degree of help you get from chatgpt
