It's just social engineering, codified. Even in that context it feels cheap.

Lawyers do the same thing as "prompt engineers"-- command mastery of English to achieve a desired outcome. We don't call them Litigation Engineers.

I’ll take it. I spend about half my time developing/promptsmithing and the other half lawyering. “Wordsmith” sure beats some of the other lawyer epithets out there

So prompt engineers could be promptsmiths?
