This makes a tremendous amount of sense. Most people are so bad at using AI for productive purposes -- but outside of eng, most AI fluency is actually hot garbage. People just haven't gained an understanding or appreciation for the degree of quality and capability they can achieve.
And once they can use it and get visible results, those orgs are ripe for large amounts of AI product adoption.
Only downside to the OAI version will be that it's OAI specific.
If nothing else, if this was truly “open” then whatever bullshit training or certification would just be released into the public for people to reference at-will.
So now there’s going to be some database of “you passed our certification to use our tool” essentially creating an in-group and an out-group.
All this because “you’re holding it wrong, clearly the problem isn’t us, it’s you people”
If its goal is to act like Cisco or Juniper and create a robust certification platform that helps identify legitimate experts in the field, helping to exclude people who talk big on AI but cant deliver, its a very good idea.
If its just a tick a box exercise however it will have zero value.

I reckon they would have a better time certifying 10 million foreigners tbh. India and the Philippines have a lot of people who pass through IT certification.

real Prompt engineering is done using automated methods, i.e. textgrad or dspy to make sure your prompt has been optimized for 500+ iterations.
Nothing wrong with it, nothing to see here.
This is complete garbage, imho

This is dystopian.

Yikes. Cringiest tech bubble ever.
