Learning coding is not strictly necessary for prompt engineering, but it can be very helpful. Understanding basic programming concepts can make it easier to automate tasks, integrate AI tools into applications, and troubleshoot issues. While effective prompt engineering mainly requires creativity, critical thinking, and a good grasp of language, coding skills enhance your ability to build more complex, dynamic, and scalable AI solutions.

I wouldn't say so, but it depends on what you intend to use Gen AI for. If it is generating draft code, then you'd need to know programming in a particular language, but otherwise it is more about identifying what you wish to achieve, framing the question, providing context, and then iterating with the Gen AI model in a conversational manner.

Not at all. Both are totally different things. Remember: prompt engineering mainly emerges when you are using generative Ai because generative Ai are content prredictive tools based on your prompt. No more than that in the basement. So, code is not needed except if you like that generative AI generate code. Saving Changes...
