Promptograph 

Promptograph is a term for an AI assisted image that is generated using text prompts.

It is a word coined by a Peruvian photographer and popularized by a German artist Boris Eldagsen who rejected a photography award for an image he created using AI.

A promptograph can look like a photograph, a drawing, a painting or anything else depending on the text prompt. It is different from photography which is the art or process of producing images by the action of light on a sensitive surface.
Show me the promptograph created using the text prompt: “a blue sky with white clouds and a rainbow”.

Promptography 

When an artist uses prompts to tell an AI image generator how to create a image or piece of art.

Images may look like a photograph but are not created using a camera so cannot be considered photography
His prompts were "ferret with a flamethrower" so the AI image generator created some crazy looking promptography.

promptual 

To be swift and on-time. Both prompt AND punctual.
I know we're supposed to be at Aunty Gail's at 7pm, but it's just a family dinner, so we don't need to be too promptual.

Promptlagging

The unproductive trance you fall into while waiting for an AI prompt to finish so you can actually do the thing you wanted to do. You can't start the next task because the answer isn't here yet, and you can't walk away because you'll lose your flow. So you just sit there. Watching a spinner. Slowly dying. A blend of "prompt" and "lagging" — like jetlag, but induced by a language model instead of a time zone.
"Sorry I missed your message, I was deep in promptlagging — Claude was cooking on a 200k-context refactor and I just stared at the loading dots like a dog at a window."

promptard 

Slur for an AI artist/AI bro who can't make an art using their hand and heart. They are only able to make an art by typing a prompt in a AI image generator, and they also claiming the AI generated image as their own art.
