Early classes on prompts are obsolete; modern models interpret human language well, so learning by doing with tools like Claude is the best approach rather than buying formal prompt collections.

26:40So right now, next question. Next up, we have Tommy Chantz in St. Paul, Minnesota, asking, where can I get the tools for prompting? As that seems to be one of the main keys to get decent results. So are there formal tools that can help people become better prompt constructors, Guy? Or is this something that... In the early days, that was like big.
27:04In fact, there was like classes and workshops when people were selling prompts. I remember it was like, buy a thousand prompts. But now the models have gotten so much better and they could interpret human language so much better than when we first saw ChachiPT out the gate. I'm impressed. And that's the other thing is learn by doing. And our friend Chirik, again, is the one who first started showing me when I got that Linux box.
27:29He's like, oh, just ask Claude to do it for you. And I was like, what? Like, it can go and do that? He's like, yeah, you have to give it your password, but go ahead and let it, you know, change that setting. And I was like, okay, I've never done this. I'm monitoring the show chat here. And Roscoe Jones said, the term vibe coding was coined by computer scientist and former OpenAI co-founder Andres Carpathi.
27:54And John Wallace has a comment. He must be trying to get in. And he's also on the chat if you want to see him over there. It says prompt engineering isn't important anymore. So I guess these large language models and the connection between that and all of this agentic AI is so sophisticated now that if your diction isn't exactly, I don't know whether it's diction or sentence construction or whatever, isn't perfect, I guess it can work its way around that and still give you reasonably good results.
28:22Hopefully that's what I'm hearing here. Let's dive in. I'm going to toss up the QR code just one more time for those of you who have questions. want to get, whoops, I hit the wrong button at the wrong time. There we go. There's the QR code if you want to get a question in about any of the topics we're discussing tonight. And let's dive into, oh, Jackson, you had a comment on all this.
28:49Jackson, you there? Yeah. So the tools that you get these from is like, there is three parts to it. So the third part just came out and the basic, the basic owners, the basic offering, they give you like the chat box and it has, it doesn't have any agency capabilities. So it doesn't do things for you. So if you ask something, it can go into, go to the internet and search it for, search it for you and give you a clear answer for getting your question.
