Introduction to AI

Understanding Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence is becoming part of everyday life, from voice assistants to online search tools. This workshop introduces AI in a simple and easy-to-understand way.

What Artificial Intelligence Is

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is technology designed to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence, such as answering questions, recognizing patterns, solving problems, and generating content. Participants will gain a simple, jargon-free understanding of AI and learn how it has become part of many everyday technologies they already use.

How AI Is Used Today

AI is increasingly integrated into daily life, often without people realizing it. Participants will explore how AI powers tools such as voice assistants, navigation apps, online shopping recommendations, customer support chatbots, and search engines. Understanding these applications helps demystify AI and shows how it can be used to make everyday tasks easier and more efficient.

Understanding Tools Like ChatGPT

AI-powered assistants such as ChatGPT can answer questions, explain topics, help with writing, and provide information on a wide range of subjects. Participants will learn what these tools can do, how to ask effective questions, and how AI assistants can be used as helpful resources for learning, problem-solving, and everyday support.

Benefits and Limitations of AI

While AI can be a powerful and convenient tool, it is not perfect. Participants will learn about the advantages of AI, including speed, accessibility, and convenience, while also understanding its limitations. Discussions will cover why AI can sometimes make mistakes, provide incomplete information, or lack the human judgment needed in certain situations.

Identifying Inaccurate Information

AI-generated responses can sometimes contain errors or misleading information. Participants will learn how to evaluate AI-generated content critically, verify important facts using trusted sources, and recognize situations where additional research may be necessary. These skills help users make informed decisions and use AI more effectively.

Safe and Responsible Use of AI Tools

Using AI responsibly involves understanding privacy, security, and ethical considerations. Participants will learn best practices for protecting personal information, avoiding oversharing sensitive data, and using AI tools thoughtfully. The workshop emphasizes that AI should be viewed as a helpful assistant rather than a replacement for human judgment and expertise.
