I'm thinking about the new jobs that are/will be created.

1. Prompt engineer - there's been a lot of talk about this, though I believe it's more extensive because businesses will need people to educate, manage prompt data stores, and assist with fine tuning.

2. Content management - as companies adopt AI with their own data, someone will need to manage the content going into the system including selection, privacy, and security.

3. Content Moderators - people who write/edit content will need to change their behavior about how the content is created and formatted, making it easier to ingest and lead to higher quality answers.

4. Content Creators - people who create content for the sole purpose of ingestion. This could be within a company, open-source/scientific research, or supporting vertical models.

5. Security Monitors - This is the person-in-the-middle who's watching/monitoring the system for privacy, safety, and security.

There are probably more, though this is what I'm thinking right now.

Prompt engineer is probably going to be a fleeting meme of a profession if we are being honest, once it becomes as trivial and widespread of a skill as any other basic piece of modern computer literacy. At one point in the transition from analog to digital, people hired others who could use word processors and other such computer tools on their behalf. They might be formally employed as a secretary or assistant but in either case that was the role at a time: an “I dictate you email” sort of arrangement you occasionally still see today if you work with any senior silent generation folks still. But over time all those others who might have hired someone like this learned how to check their own email, and write their own documents, and make their own slide decks, and this obviated a lot of extra jobs along the way.

No, there is deep hard to formalize knowledge one can gain with practice. Moreover, it is model-specific. A better name would be "prompt magician".
