It just seemed kind of obvious that eventually it wouldn't matter how good you are at prompting, the models would just become good enough to understand what you needed.

And the smarter these models get, the more it matters how good your prompts are now. Sure, if you just have a simple question or request, it doesn't matter too much how good your prompt is. In fact, it might matter less than

Prompt engineering and context engineering remain skills; as models become more capable, high-quality prompts can unlock higher-value outputs rather than becoming irrelevant.
