Ask HN: How to learn to solve problems using AI?

[srinathkrishna]

As a generalist software engineer, my first instinct to solve problems (day-to-day stuff like making my life better with productivity tools and the like) using conventional software engineering techniques using a typical programming language. However, with the rise of AI tools/APIs, there are other ways to solve these problems by leveraging these.

How does one go about learning this muscle? If this is something that will build over time in your brain, any means to fast track this by reading through application whitepapers/inner workings of tools etc.?

A good term to search for, is 'Prompt engineering'.
