The world’s first and largest AI (artificial intelligence) prompt engineering training initiative, called ‘One Million Prompters’, was announced in Dubai on Tuesday.
Based in Dubai, the project aims to upskill 1 million people in prompt engineering over the next three years. Prompt engineering refers to using the most effect prompts (inputs) to guide AI to generate or produce the most effective results for engineering tasks.
The announcement came from Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, Chairman of the Executive Council of Dubai, and Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Dubai Future Foundation (DFF).
One Million Prompters was launched in line with the Dubai Universal Blueprint for Artificial Intelligence, aiming to accelerate the adoption of AI applications. It is the first-of-its-kind prompt engineering initiative to develop expertise and competencies in AI prompt engineering, which involves crafting precise and effective instructions for AI systems to achieve desired outcomes in various tasks, ranging from generating creative content to solving complex challenges.
The initiative will follow an extensive programme that includes training courses to upskill individuals in AI and prompt engineering, offering them accredited certifications to validate their expertise and help them stand out. In addition, it will host various competitions and provide a platform for talents to network and collaborate with experts across the technology ecosystem.
One Million Prompters was announced as Sheikh Hamdan attended the final round of the Global Prompt Engineering Championship, the world’s biggest AI prompt engineering challenge.
The championship concluded on Tuesday after two days of contests in which participants competed for total prizes of Dh1 million. It was organised by the Dubai Centre for Artificial Intelligence (DCAI) and overseen by DFF.
Sheikh Hamdan directed that the second edition of the Global Prompt Engineering Championship, to be held next year, should be expanded to include more categories in areas such as software, videos, and other key fields.
