Will AI training bifurcate into pre-training and prompt engineering? or will there continue to be one level (or more) of fine-tuning in between?

Both crypto and AI seem to involve thinking "in the limit." Crypto: what will people do with these incentives in the long run? And how do we solve cold-start in the short run? AI: how will bots perform with these parameters in the long run? and how do we tune them as gradient -> 0?

It's clarifying to identify and question the most important reason for doing something, instead of searching for multiple. If there is no single reason for doing it, it may not be important at all.
