“Prompt engineering as a skill is still definitely a good thing to have, but it’s not an entire title,” Shrivastava told Fortune.
As employers increasingly demand workers increase their use of AI (and with it, their productivity), prompt engineering has shifted from something exclusive to the tech field to a skill that all workers need to master.
But despite the ups and downs of the job market, Shrivastava encourages those on the job hunt to be bullish when applying—even if you don’t check all the education or skill qualifications.
“Don’t be shied away from applying based on solid requirements,” she said. “You never know.”
“I really encourage people to have their own conviction on what things are going to be like,” he said. “Just because something is not a historically valuable or high-status job, doesn’t mean it won’t be in the future.”
