Start today

7 lessons

Open an AI app, get past the sign-up, and ask your first useful questions. Even if you have no email address, no computer and very little data.

Asking well

6 lessons

Turn a vague question into a clear request. This one skill is the difference between a useless answer and a useful one.

What is really happening inside

7 lessons

Understand what the machine is actually doing. Once you know this, nothing it does will surprise you, and you will stop expecting things it cannot do.

When it is wrong

6 lessons

Know why AI makes confident mistakes, catch them in seconds, and build a checking habit you use every time.

Learning with AI

10 lessons

Use AI as a patient teacher for maths, physics, chemistry, computers and English, in a way that makes you stronger rather than weaker.

Work, money and daily life

9 lessons

Use AI for job applications, interviews, government forms, exams, farming, a small shop, and helping your family.

Staying safe

8 lessons

Protect your privacy, your money and your family from AI scams, and know when using AI is the wrong choice.

The machine behind the answer

6 lessons

See where your question really goes: the tower, the cables under the sea, the data centre, the chips, and the electricity it all burns.

Keeping up as it changes

5 lessons

Stay useful when the apps change every few months, and know which of your skills will still matter.
