I currently take a very causal approach to prompting. Have others started at that point and moved to the rigor discussed here? How much marginal benefit did you see? Does the investment of prompt time provide linear returns? Exponential? Logarithmic?

Don't forget the emotional payoff of feeling like you're not having to do the actual work. I'd bet that some people are spending more time and energy writing prompts that it would take to just solve problems themselves.
