Prompt Engineering is Dead. Long Live Prompt Artistry.

A Prompt Artist knows that "Create an image of a cat" gets a generic cat. But "A cat, illuminated by neon Tokyo rain, in the style of Cyberpunk 2077, wide angle" gets a masterpiece.

Words are your raw material. You are turning text into pixels, into code, into strategy. This is modern alchemy.
