Prompting Is Dead in 6 Months. Andrew Ng, Stanford [video]

Andrew Ng’s point that “prompting is dead in 6 months” suggests that as AI models and agentic tooling mature, business value will shift away from manual prompt craft and toward building robust AI-enabled products, workflows, and governance. For CIOs and technology leaders, the strategic implication is that IT organizations should stop treating prompting as a core capability and instead invest in integration, data quality, model orchestration, evaluation, and security controls that scale across the enterprise.
