NO

Resolves to YES if I can find at least 1/10 of the amount of jobs I find for "software engineer" by searching "prompt engineer", or whatever term has come to describe getting results from AI by talking rather than through programming or training.

Sort by:

By my search on Linkedin, "Sofware Engineer" worldwide gets 413k hits, while "Prompt Engineer" 1.3k. So not 10%. Thanks for playing!

predictedYES

Looks like the trend is slowly increasing, but so far not enough to reach 10% by EOY. It has started increasing more in recent days though, so let's see.
Also, the ratio is mostly increasing due to decreasing software engineering jobs, which is worrying.

It's currently 3,772 (https://www.indeed.com/jobs?q=prompt+engineer) vs 75,684 (https://www.indeed.com/jobs?q=software+engineer) at Indeed, which is 5%. I'm not sure what the trend is, but it should be more than a 7% chance to get to 10% by the end of the year.

1/10 is a very high bar

I fucking hope not
