There is a conceptual difference between a blob of text drafted by a person and a dynamically generated blob of text initiated by a human, generated through multiple LLM calls that pull in information from targeted resources. Perhaps "dynamically generated prompts" is more fitting than "context", but nevertheless, there is a difference to be teased out, whatever the jargon we decide to use.
There's always been a distinction between prompt and data.
Spoken like a non Lisp programmer.
LLM's can't distinguish between instruction prompts and data prompts - that's why prompt injection attacks exist.
I agree, and that's a problem. It doesn't mean the distinction doesn't exist, in fact it shows the opposite.
