“prompt engineering” in itself is such an embarrassing term for the act of saying “computer uhhh show me epic boobies!!”

like that joke about calling dishwashing “submerged porcelain technician” but unironically

It's not engineering either. Or art. It's only barely writing, in an overly literal sense.

But is "prompt hacking" considered actual "hacking?"

"Engineering"

They're not engineers and they're too chicken shit to act like engineers.

Yeah, well, like most software engineers lol

I'm a huge stickler about degreeless website devs claiming to be Engineers but even I think they're leagues above people who ask ChatGPT for advice.
