The issue with prompting is English (or any other human language) is nowhere near as rigid or strict a language as a programming language. Almost always an idea can be expressed much more succinctly in code than language.

Combine that with when you’re reading the code it’s often much easier to develop a prototype solution as you go and you end up with prompting feeling like using 4 men to carry a wheelbarrow instead of having 1 push it.

I think we are going to end up with common design/code specification language that we use for prompting and testing. There's always going to be a need to convey the exact semantics of what we want. If not, for AI then for the humans who have to grapple with what is made.

Sounds like "Heavy process". "Specifying exact semantics" has been tried and ended up unimaginably badly.
