I've been a junior developer for 3 years and lately everyone's talking about prompt engineering roles. The pay seems decent but I'm not sure if it's actually a stable career path or just hype. Should I retrain for this or stick with traditional coding?
I'd stick with coding skills since prompt engineering feels like it's still figuring itself out - what I've heard from folks in tech is that the actual demand for dedicated "prompt engineers" hasn't really materialized the way people thought it would back in 2025. Your 3 years of dev experience is way more solid ground than chasing something that might be a short-term trend, kind of like how every new tool promises to change everything but most don't pan out.
