The Career of “Prom Engineer” Is No Longer Relevant – A Hotly Discussed Position About Two Years Ago



When the popularity of ChatGPT began to rise since the end of 2022, one of the hotly discussed careers or positions was “prom engineer”, referring to users who were smart in writing appropriate text and keywords to enable an artificial intelligence model to produce something in line with the company's wishes and needs. Various companies offered high salaries at that time, in looking for “prom engineers”, so as not to be missed with the transition to the artificial intelligence arena.


However, now, after more than two years, the career is now seen as no longer relevant. One of the reasons is because artificial intelligence models are getting smarter, and easier to understand user needs.


Not only that, various companies also provide a series of training for existing employees in further understanding the artificial intelligence models used by a company. In fact, at the beginning of the era of artificial intelligence, many in the IT arena are ready to target which is like the beginning of the use of search engines, where day by day the system will be smarter on its own, and display what users are looking for without using any specific keywords.


Our own check on the local JobStreet site revealed that there was only one trainee position offered specifically for a “prom engineer”. This development also indirectly shows that the development of artificial intelligence is not only impacting other careers, but also careers that have emerged as a result of the artificial intelligence boom itself.
