"Prompt is dead" is a misread: no model can read what's in your head

The author pushes back on the "prompting is dead" narrative: every word you send to a model is a prompt. Models do understand you better now, but no matter how smart they get, they can't read what's in your head.
The essentials of writing to a model remain unchanged: clear context, defined output format, and constraints. Models evolve, but prompting persists because it's the language we talk to them in.
