TBF I always read prompt engineering as the 2nd definition, not the first.

> 1. the branch of science and technology concerned with the design, building, and use of engines, machines, and structures.

2. the action of working artfully to bring something about.

So you're trying to learn what / how to prompt, in order to "bring something about" (the results you're after).
