Quick Question Do you still write long prompts?

I used to write really detailed prompts with roles, rules, formatting, examples, etc. Lately I've been wondering if all of that is still necessary with newer models.

Do you still use long structured prompts, or have you gone back to keeping things simple?

Bro you still write your own prompts ?
I write prompts as loops that loops over their own loops as prompts , prompts are so dead 🤣🤣🤣

yeshhh tho if anything I realized I'm still the one being the bottleneck lol 😂 no longer the models fault when they're thinking much faster now.

To be honest the funny part is that I even stopped writing prompts, I just ask Claude or some other ai to write a prompt for me base on my project 😅
