So... People are actually using the term "prompt engineer"...
No different than someone calling a janitor a "sanitation engineer". Fancy titles make people happy.
There are sandwich artists and sanitation engineers. Everyone knows they get paid like crap.
Unfortunately "prompt engineers" seem to be getting paid small fortunes when their job is essentially using a massive amount of computing power to commit various levels of intellectual property theft they hope no one will notice.
