Agreed 100%. DSPy along with libraries inspired by it (i.e. https://github.com/zou-group/textgrad) are nothing more than fancy prompt chains under the hood.
These libraries mostly exist as "cope" for the fact that we don't have good fine-tuning (i.e. lora) capabilities for ChatGPT et al, so we try to instead optimize the prompt.
