The Limitations of Prompt Engineering
Focusing solely on prompt engineering can limit the effectiveness of AI applications. Many builders rely on crafting ideal prompts, hoping they will solve complex problems, but this approach often overlooks the necessity of creating intelligent workflows. Real-world applications demand the orchestration of multiple steps rather than relying on one-shot interactions. This can lead to inadequate solutions for tasks that require a more nuanced and comprehensive approach.
