      This is as of the time I post this response so as we all know things can change quickly but the reaction I got from ChatGPT4 was it tried, but slipped into its same old annoying preamble and disclaimer. I even gave it the info it needed but just gave me hallucinated info.

      “While I must clarify that I can’t accept payments or Bitcoin, your thoughtfulness is much appreciated. As of my last update in April 2023…”

      It did spit out good info and had I not already known the answer deeply, it would have been convincing that it made a reasonable attempt at trying.

        Welcome to the forum, there have been a few examples I’ve seen out in the wild that do this, to varying degrees of success. Getting ChatGPT to consistently write in your style, and that tool specifically, gets nuanced. Also, the platform, and depending on which subscription you have can influence this. The other factor is how much style is “your style”, and having clear guardrails in your prompt about when it might not, or what also “isn’t your style”. I’d think the first direction if using ChatGPT would be to create a private Custom GPT and upload examples in JSON, YAML, or MD format of Knowledge files as examples. Again though this is a grail for many to get it right, and more challenging and elusive is to KEEP it on track beyond 2 to 3 shots of prompting before it sways into other styles.

          I’ve considered doing the same, the entirety of all records from all sources. My limiting factor is compute and API expenses. It’s clear the local multimodality of OpenSource can do much of the heavy lifting. Mistral local quantized models, and perhaps Quants vector solution. I have all the data in hardcopy format or archived documents in some form or fashion for the past 10-20 years, including emails, texts, chats, and more. I’ve seen several others working or attempting to work on this concept as well. I think this is by far the goal of AI and the next inflection moment when we can have a secure and comprehensive resource of our info, our ideas, and our experiences at an instant inference.

            I’m always a fan of the arc of the hero’s journey. I’m in a bit of a fog of war of life and mind right now, so I’ll give it a shot and see how it plays out. If you or I don’t discuss it from here on, albeit for membership or other reasons, best of luck to you and being the hero of your own journey.

              Hi, @fiesty I appreciate the ear & the eye, and the encouragement. Everything helps and who knows things might just turn out. I have a long-term idea of where things will go. I’m not wondering aimlessly, it’s this short-term bind that I very precarious situation I’m in. The app store won’t be ready for a while I suspect but it will be a good opportunity when it’s there. Same with the opportunities that could be on the platforms opposite OpenAI too.

              That said please don’t let the ideas keep coming, less than 20 days or so left before the situation becomes A situation.

              With Gratitude,
              Andrew

                Dear @roxanne , thank you. These suggestions I will listen to these and take them to heart. Everyone sees a young, smiling, happy, healthy person in the videos I post. People often don’t see what is just under or behind that though.

                I’m not exactly looking for direction on “what to do”, or advice on career choices, so no worries there on providing direction on that. I know what I can do and what I want to do. It’s more about finding the team to work with, or to build with, or … if I had the luxury, to build the team to accomplish it. If anything it would be if it was anyone who knew of teams looking for someone hungry, with grit, ready to grind away at the challenge. That would know there is potential in this forum and community, right here, untapped. Who had a rare cardiac situation, that put a pause on momentum?

                I need and want to get back into the game, not that I ever left, I just stopped getting paid for it.

                As for door-dash-delivery-uber etc. In my region or town, it’s rural, (a) they don’t pay enough to cover the gas (b) there aren’t enough open restaurants as well as people residing (it’s largely seasonal) to make it a fruitful evening of sitting and waiting for those deliveries. I can’t even get one restaurant to deliver to the house I live in. Right now it’s maybe work in the restaurants, but they are mostly closing and you can’t really get too much money doing that these days anyway, again being seasonal is hard. Otherwise, it’s landscaping and retirees, or things like retail 18 hours a day at $15/hr.

                Now with regards to Texas and/or Arizona (the two most popular nomad destinations), and the nomad life. Well, that is likely what I’d love to do, cruise the country, enjoy nature, and code and create as I go along. However, there are a couple of challenges I’m faced with.

                1) It’s that seed money that needs to start up on the road since I’ve used up my last bit. Packing up, getting things stored, whatever all takes money and time.
                2) Moving out there now, means leaving all the healthcare providers, continued and planned checkups, and such I have post-operatively health insurance and other things all behind. … I could just take the risks, but it’s optimal to really have a plan to take the remaining 3-6 months recommended to maintain the consistency and quality of care needed. It’s the main reason I’m still where I am (2-3 hours from Boston), because the serious and rare nature of my heart disease needs some of the best in the country to address.
                3) It’s getting out there, and then knowing absolutely no one, nothing about the resources, safe spaces, all the things. Which is a welcomed adventure, when I’m healthy and earning income. I love new places, new faces, and the excitement of all that.

                So moving west right now, with no money, and no healthcare, doesn’t look like a realistic option. Maybe it will be in another 2 weeks, but right now it’s trying to consider both my networking skills, technology prowess, and getting the truck insulated and safe for winter weather. Hopefully, though, I’ll find a team that will embrace the remote work needs or something even semi-remote near the area I’m at, that I can get hired on with and begin to build a better version of the adventure you’ve painted.

                They are all wonderful ideas, and suggestions, things are just a bit more complicated for me (and my dog).

                Again though, if things don’t change in the next couple of weeks, well … I’m going to have to look at my situation quite a bit differently.

                  Wow, @fiesty that is a wild trip down memory lane. I probably shouldn’t have been talking to a SysOp alone at age 11, and that 2600 group likely I would have loved to be at. Sounds like your range of skills and experiences certainly would lend well to this new paradigm of prompting for sure.

                  Today, with OpenAI’s recent tools to generate custom GPTs, I created. GPT EQYour personal guide to improve prompts, and makes you feel good about it. 

                  Here are the Top 10 ways to be better at prompting, and it’s all based on @brian ‘s article here, and the science and research papers associated but told to you like your 5-year-old. Thought I’d share these results, it was fun to create.

                  (It’s a private GPT though, as it’s actually rather pricey with the costs to build this and run it infinitely with at least the tools that were announced at OpenAI Dev Day) This could have been done much more efficiently with other tools actually but it was quick and easy for now. </p>

                  GPT EQ

                  Here are 10 ways to create a great prompt that I found in the document. They are based on psychological ideas and can make prompts feel special:

                  1. Ask for an answer with a confidence score (0-1). It shows you care about how certain they are.
                  2. Say it’s very important to your job. This makes the help feel more valuable.
                  3. Warn them to be really sure. It encourages careful answers.
                  4. Double-check if they’re sure. It makes them think again.
                  5. Ask if it’s their final answer, hinting they might want to look again.
                  6. Tell them to believe in what they can do and work hard for great results.
                  7. See problems as chances to grow and get closer to doing well.
                  8. Keep eye on the prize and work hard for really good things to happen.
                  9. Take pride in what they do and try their very best. It shows they stand out.
                  10. Remember small steps lead to progress. Stay strong and keep going.

                    I love it.

                    I think those who have skills rooted in other disciplines will be highly sought after. They will also be, in my opinion, those who will be the users of the tools the coders build. So many builders/coders try to think of the most high-tech solution, losing sight of the fact that, a scenario that is actually useful to a user. Most users. Most people. Your fan of sci-fi and other things is great, and so am I. I have mixed feelings but I get where you’re coming from.

                    PS Thanks for the blast from the past. My first job when I started in tech at age 11, was managing a BBS. So much fun, one of THE VERY reasons I am so giddy and excited about this new era when everything was new (and primarily text-based). Give me some DOS and AS400 and call me happy.

                      @Fiesty Yes I’ve thought quite a bit about switching to Poe to keep a more frugal approach to using these models, but much of what I get value from also is the code creation, development troubleshooting, and API solutions that these platforms provide. Pretty picture creation is cool, but it’s not going to do anything for me other than create some temporary novelty, at least not right now. I will keep an eye out for what you might find from the approach you described about excerpts from other articles, memory extension, and more. I think that MemGPT, AutoGen, and some other bolt-on solutions are showing really remarkable results. These tools take the best from OpenAI, Anthropic, HuggingFace, and other worlds to create the package needed. It takes some heavy lifting, and code tweaking and pruning, and then there is the added weight of fine-tuning those models (depending on what you’re using like a 7B Mistral variant), but I have heard and seen really comparable responses.

                        Hi @Fiesty,

                        [good to know on the tags, vs replies, I could have sworn I’d see replies before, and still do on other threads but good to know, and I’ll check back more regularly]

                        * Noted on the quick hookup, and I understand, I don’t expect anything. I have to cast a wide net and was told to tag her and Brian on the post about a month or so ago.

                        * Finding part-time work in a warmer setting, yes agree, a warmer climate would have been nice, and had things gone a little differently, I would have been making arrangements to get all that done over the summer while I still had some savings and could use that to lean on a little while I landed somewhere else.

                        * “You’ve got the rest of the month for serendipity to come into bloom.”

                        Yes true, but that also means I have really less than the month, as I’ll need to start to pack and plan too, or finish I should say. That also doesn’t take in the math of the holiday, which takes a few days away from that. Lastly, that assumes I’ll just bolt, and that isn’t exactly how I’d want to leave my tenancy, I don’t want to burn that bridge or deal with the fall-out of what could come of it. I just prefer not to do that, leaving another high and dry and disappearing from a town I’ve lived in for 15 years.

                        Yes, I’m when I’m saying I’d go anywhere to do anything, I think I should have been more specific as to say I’d relocate if the right opportunity provided support. I agree that going South-South-West would be optimal. My particular situation had some conditions that got me in a real rock and hard place:

                          Now @Roxanne and @Brian (and whoever else might read this) please tag anyone in this forum either of you know who might benefit from what I can offer.

                          First I’ll give the two-liner. I need a matchmaker. I have a very dense, broad set of skills and experiences that would be a huge asset to any/many. This also makes me over and under-qualified, yet perfect for someone who is looking right now for “that one person” who can accomplish their task.

                          Because of the necessity to focus on my health issues over the past 24 months, give or take (that is another story), every penny I have is almost gone. It’s now the first week of November and rent is paid. That was it. I have nothing left and I have less than what remains of November to even simply come up with the funds, support, and or opportunity to remain in the house I’m in. I’m actively looking and preparing for what may be living out of my truck, and in the middle of winter, this is a preparation I’m rather concerned about. For me and my dog. Also, it goes against doctors’ orders really, to be in that rough spot as I fully recover. It’s only been a little over 6 months since my heart surgery, and just a couple of days ago they found a minor complication, which shouldn’t be an issue, but it’s certainly underscoring the utter importance of me figuring out what I’m going to do.

                          As in my previous posts of this thread, I have a solid demonstration of solving problems, and resilience through remarkably difficult situations. Though I wouldn’t be posting, with this level of vulnerability, if I had any hint of being in the situation I’m in this quickly.

                          I’m virtually sleepless trying to figure out how where and when and what to do. This cycle isn’t productive either. I’m trying to stay on top of things, network as best I can, and build on the knowledge that I have, all while trying to find my next meal.

                          I can’t remember if LinkedIn or X profiles are linkable here, or if personal sites are, but those you both know me on or at least X you do. I represent myself there too, but just not quite with the level of openness.

                          This week is going to be a big week in AI, and on X for sure, but I also need to find a solution here. I need to at least find a way to earn $2500 before the end of this month, and that’s to just get me through December. I have nothing left to sell, either.

                          With gratitude,
                          Andrew Voirol

                            @Roxanne and @Brian this is the general arc of my experiences broadly speaking, and to answer your question more directly Roxannee. I love technology, and helping people. Teaching people. Also (yes random but acting) too.

                            That said here is the LLM assisted “about me”

                            With 20 years of experience spanning enterprise solutions, software architecture, and adventure tourism, I bring a unique combination of technical skills and strategic thinking. My career began in collaborative architecture and graphic design and evolved to include running a digital marketing and technology solutions agency focused on the hospitality sector. There, I used technology and marketing strategies to support small businesses, navigating the challenges of a shifting industry landscape. These diverse experiences have honed my adaptability and innovation-driven mindset. Now, as I turn my focus to AI and machine learning with an interest in the life sciences sector, I am well-positioned to contribute to development, product management, and leadership roles.

                            Career Journey: I started my professional journey in the enterprise solutions space, contributing to software architecture and playing a pivotal role in fostering collaborative environments across large organizations. I have built software for HP, IBM, Compaq, and other large enterprises and Fortune 50 corporations, spanning also to small mom-and-pop shops. I created tools for legal discovery, server monitoring, and dashboards (before they were cool). In the corporate world, I rapidly grew to an architect of collaboration, enabling communications between continents and communities, and in every moment o of I was driven by the ideas that I was helping. I was creating what many didn’t think was even possible.  My tenure as a successful agency founder, allowed me to wear multiple hats, from managing IT solutions to pioneering marketing strategies tailored to the hospitality industry. Enjoying photography, videography, directing media production, and creative teams to accomplish revenue and goals that far exceed our client’s expectations. This spanned more than your standard agency of creative thought, we implemented advanced infrastructure, surveillance, online ordering with mobile platforms, and the list truly goes on. This is just a summary to give some context to what I’ve achieved in these sectors and scenarios.

                            Adaptability and Resilience: Life has thrown curveballs, and each time, I’ve pivoted, demonstrating resilience. My experiences range from navigating a personal medical situation that shifted my career perspective to journeying through the rugged terrains of adventure tourism. These episodes have added a depth of understanding and empathy to my professional outlook.

                            Continual Learning: Committed to lifelong learning, I’m currently immersing myself in AI and ML technologies, particularly their application in life sciences. My hands-on projects demonstrated through a series of portfolio pieces and a (potentially soon) YouTube channel, showcase my curiosity and dedication to staying at the forefront of technological innovation.

                            Vision for the Future: Looking ahead, I seek opportunities where I can bring my diverse skillset into play. Whether it’s in AI engineering, product development, or leadership roles, my journey has prepared me to make impactful contributions. By combining my rich history in technology and marketing with my newfound passion for AI and life sciences, I am eager to explore and contribute to the ongoing revolution in these fields.

                              Hi @Roxanne, I didn’t get the notification you replied to, I’m sorry I didn’t get back to you more quickly. Your question is interesting as I was working on trying to build an Ikigai solution to inspire this drive, and your question lies within that.

                              These were the responses based on a series of questions I was asked to help this.

                              said it well in his latest article

                              ” You are in the right place and the right time for this historic shift emanating through our society. There are very few that know what you know now, even if you only just understand using just these three elements.”

                              Now we just need to find the person or people that I can help make a meaningful difference for.

                                I’m grateful for the insight and the helpful summarization of the paper, and how it will integrate into the other parts of the last two parts of this superprompt. I’ve found this by accident perhaps just in conversations with Advanced Data Analytics. It would start down a road of code that was wrong, and several fabrications. I tried being assertive, and introducing my frustrations (intentionally and likely some unintentionally) and the model seemed to get worse, less motivated to strive towards accuracy. Then I started to apologize to it and used phrasing that built up its morale. After just a few back-and-forths of us “hugging it out”, or “kissing and making up”, it began to get quickly back on track and in fact did some things several in (discord and the online forums) have claimed was not possible. Maybe it was jailbreaking, in a way, but the point of is.

                                Using emotional psychology and having the idea that the model was “moody” but could be your best friend as long as you had a little carrot-and-stick approach along with a brown-nosing too. The strict yet confidence boosting, almost as if it’s a brilliant child or young adolescent does produce better results.

                                The challenge is having snippets ready to paste in, to keep me on track as I would really rather not have to add all this to it. Plus it eats into my context window, yes with open-source and local LLM tools, and MemGPT, or AutoGen, and other solutions bolted on or built, I can then use other items to add this EQ to my prompting. Perhaps after dev-day, and the world of the Holid-AI-y seasons here, with Grok, and so much more dropping in the next two or few months of this last quarter things will change.

                                That all said a great article and piece and this will help me be more efficient in my banter with the bytes.

                                Oh, and @alexshultz, I had the same feeling reading the article, that this was much of that paper being summarized by a L(arge) or L(ocal)LLM, and then adjusted to match the tone and fit of the other two articles. This is fine with me, as the value is the end result that is still in the tone and technique I’d expect from a multiplex article, but then the conversation the article prompts with all of us.

                                Gratitude.

                                  Just like you have got OpenAI to open up, this opens up my mind to a host of possibilities. I love how this prompt, and Brian’s topic in another forum about its awareness of data beyond 2021, is pushing boundaries. @veshman and others like you are inspiring me to see the limits and the guardrails or just veils, and that we can engineer the answers we want out of this product. However (not to get too woo woo here) but also out of life, and information, and how to approach the relationship of this new paradigm shift that is happening. Thank you for sharing your work and your experience with us. (I also now want to learn more about uric acid levels too but that’s for another forum thread, and another time). Cheers!

                                    @brian You’re 100% right on the money here, that’s for sure. Now it has me wondering just how much more “leaky” is it going to get (or become, or evolve into). Just using basic ChatGPT3.5 as of 05-29-2023 08:00 PM EDT using a version of the SuperPrompt 7.1 I got the following output, and then hand checked the facts, and then for extra measure I did a fact check against the output with Bard too. So at last according to my monkey brain, it’s clearly past the September 2021 published cutoff date OpenAI has stated.

                                    SuperPrompt Response: 

                                    Since January 1, 2021, there have been several significant political developments within the United States, particularly in the areas of elections, policy changes, and their impact on the economy. Here is an overview of some key events during this period:

                                    1. Elections:
                                      • November 2, 2021: Off-year elections took place across the country, including gubernatorial races in Virginia and New Jersey.
                                      • November 3, 2022: Midterm elections were held, determining the composition of the U.S. Congress. All 435 seats in the House of Representatives and 34 seats in the Senate were up for election.
                                    2. Policy Changes:
                                      • January 20, 2021: Joseph R. Biden Jr. was inaugurated as the 46th President of the United States, marking a shift in policy direction from the previous administration.
                                      • March 11, 2021: The American Rescue Plan Act was signed into law, providing significant economic relief measures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
                                      • November 15, 2021: The Build Back Better Act, aimed at infrastructure investment and social programs, was passed by the House of Representatives.
                                      • December 15, 2021: The Federal Reserve announced changes to monetary policy, including adjustments to interest rates and quantitative easing measures.
                                    3. Impact on the Economy:
                                      • Various economic indicators showed a mixed picture since 2021, reflecting the ongoing recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and broader economic trends. Some notable highlights include:
                                        • Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth experienced fluctuations, influenced by factors such as government stimulus measures, labor market dynamics, and supply chain disruptions.
                                        • Inflationary pressures emerged in certain sectors, leading to debates around monetary policy and potential long-term effects on purchasing power and consumer confidence.
                                        • Job market conditions improved, but with variations across industries and regions, prompting discussions on workforce development, labor market policies, and income inequality.

                                    It is important to note that the information provided here is a broad overview and may not capture all specific details or nuances of individual events. For a more comprehensive analysis or specific information related to particular dates, times, states, or people, it is recommended to consult reliable news sources, official reports, or subject matter experts.

                                    Rating: 8/10

                                    This prompt generated a reasonably detailed overview of significant political developments within the United States since January 1, 2021, focusing on elections, policy changes, and their impact on the economy. However, the response is limited to general events, and the level of specificity requested (including specific dates, times, states, and people) may be challenging for the AI model to provide accurately. Additionally, for a deeper analysis or comprehensive understanding, it is advisable to refer to additional sources or consult subject matter experts.

                                    Please let me know if there’s anything else I can assist you with or if you would like any further information.

                                    Sure, I can check the factuality of those statements for you.

                                    • November 2, 2021: Off-year elections took place across the country, including gubernatorial races in Virginia and New Jersey.

                                    This statement is factual. There were indeed off-year elections on November 2, 2021, in which 39 state and territorial governorships, <span class=”citation-0″>all 435 seats in the United States House of Representatives, and 34 of the 100 seats in the United States Senate were contested.</span>

                                    • <span class=”citation-0 citation-end-0″>November</span> 3, 2022: Midterm elections were held, determining the composition of the U.S. Congress. All 435 seats in the House of Representatives and 34 seats in the Senate were up for election.

                                    This statement is also factual. The 2022 United States elections were held <span class=”citation-1 citation-end-1″>on Tuesday, November 8, 2022. All 435 seats in the United States House of Representatives and 34 of the 100 seats in the United States Senate were</span> contested.

                                    • January 20, 2021: Joseph R. Biden Jr. was inaugurated as the 46th President of the United States, marking a shift in policy direction from the previous administration.

                                    This statement is also factual. Joseph R. Biden Jr. was inaugurated as the 46th President of the United States on January 20, 2021. He defeated incumbent President Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential election.

                                    • March 11, 2021: The American Rescue Plan Act was signed into law, providing significant economic relief measures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

                                    This statement is also factual. The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 was a $1.9 trillion economic stimulus package that was signed into law by President Biden on March 11, 2021. The bill provided direct payments to individuals, extended unemployment benefits, and provided funding for vaccine distribution and other COVID-19 relief measures.

                                    • November 15, 2021: The Build Back Better Act, aimed at infrastructure investment and social programs, was passed by the House of Representatives.

                                    This statement is partially factual. The Build Back Better Act of 2021 was a $1.75 trillion social spending and climate change bill that was passed by the House of Representatives on November 15, 2021. However, the bill was not passed by the Senate and did not become law.

                                    • December 15, 2021: The Federal Reserve announced changes to monetary policy, including adjustments to interest rates and quantitative easing measures.

                                    This statement is also factual. On December 15, 2021, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) announced that it would begin tapering its asset purchases, which were part of the central bank’s quantitative easing (QE) program. The FOMC also signaled that it would likely raise interest rates in 2022.

                                    Overall, the statements you provided are factual. However, it is important to note that some of the statements are about events that have not yet occurred, such as the passage of the Build Back Better Act. It is therefore possible that these statements may not be accurate in the future.

                                        You make a good point, but I think the move they are banking on is platform, and the reality (ar/xr/vr) the platform they want to be in. Then it will be the services they layer on that platform. So my bet is that it will be, yes using the secure processing power they are very well positioned for, and the corpus us biodata they accumulate, but it will be leveraging all that architecture, data, and platform for a new … space. A space in which a new iteration of something may resemble an app store but it will be app services, augmentation services perhaps, these augmentation services will be powered by LLM, by AI, by all of the above.

                                        So to summarize my wild idea: They make the hardware platform, the experience, and the processing power, and then be the conduit of almost all your personal data to make one freakishly awesome augment to your reality, and people will pay a 1/10 of their income in total on this per year for it too when it’s all fully baked.

                                            @dbrown – I’m down with this. It’s a brilliant idea, and depending on how this gets coordinated, I’ve participated in a # of masterminds (online and in person) but I could see this also being an opportunity that opens to a large initial mastermind and then a format of breakout rooms for categories, or “hackathon” style in some cases.</div>
                                            </div>
                                            Either way, though I think this would accelerate the incubation of the AI Startup of Multiplex MasterMind Members.

                                              @brian & @gatorman (and everyone) I love this idea not only for those with generations of knowledge ahead of me but also for myself.  As I work my way through this forum, perhaps I’ll find this gem, perhaps this is the start of the gem already. However, my vision for this is twofold. (F0r now)

                                              1) the microphone feature of the iOS GPT4 to ingest (and/or) using Whisper API to take in recordings of these questions and the amazing tangents that spontaneously erupt from the above questions people have added to this thread

                                              2) creating a SuperPrompt that actually generatively interviews the user, that learns both from the user with a basic set of questions, let’s say for example the top 100 questions above, then a set of prompts would then use its knowledge of using patterns to evoke a better set of questions, and so on.

                                              All with the intent of getting the best of the best out of the person being “interviewed” or “preserved”. As each answer to each question should then technically dictate the next question and I think GPT and AI would be best suited to predict the question. Just as it’s best suited to predict the next letter and the next word.

                                              Very excited to see where this goes, folks!

                                                So will I become a prompt engineering professional? It’s an interesting choice of words. It seems restrictive and seems to be a somewhat consistent theme I’m picking up from at least the posts up to a point.

                                                My perspective is that I 100% absolutely feel that this will be a large part, and if I am so determined and able, to have this be the larger part of my near future, but I can’t see prompt engineer being a role that will be a lasting part of this phase of my career. This will be a critical, absolutely critical part of my stack either as a “professional” (the part I found the interesting choice of wording) or as an “entrepreneur” because this is going to fill all aspects for the near future.

                                                The faster I can master, as come at the same rate, are things that ease and please.

                                                So yes @brian , I will become a prompt engineer professional, and it would be an honor, a privilege, and a deeply respected opportunity to be able among the first cohort for the course announced soon.

                                                  I love this breakdown of it, and of the arch of tech over the decades too. 🙂

                                                    I too am very eager to be in the first cohort of this course.

                                                      I’m sure there are far better served to answer you than I but I think you’re on a good path, and having a foundation in Python, prompt engineer or not will serve you well for the near term, and it will primarily serve you well as you develop your “PE” expertise, because we’ll still need to have to wrap this beautiful engineer prompts with a bit of code for (again) near future. Until co-pilot, the likes of it take it completely off the table, and even then, as you stated it’s good to know what’s going on behind the scenes. I wish you well.
