For decades, we've been taught that programming requires writing lines of code, debugging, and testing. But what if there's a new way to program, one that doesn't require coding at all? Welcome to the world of prompt engineering, where language models and AI systems can generate code, create conversational interfaces, and even write games – all from simple text prompts.In this thought-provoking keynote, we'll challenge the conventional wisdom of programming and explore the possibilities of prompt engineering. Through live demos, real-world examples, and a dash of humor, we'll examine the similarities between prompt engineering and traditional programming, from designing and architecting complex systems to debugging and testing.
