Course path

No matter where the learner starts, the course leads to the same proof: one useful AI conversation they can repeat.

  1. Pick one low-risk task.
    Choose something useful that does not involve private or high-stakes information.
  2. Ask in plain English.
    Write what you want, who it is for, and what would make the answer useful.
  3. Use one follow-up.
    Ask AI to make the answer clearer, shorter, cheaper, kinder, safer, or more specific.
  4. Check the answer.
    Decide whether the answer is safe enough to use or needs a trusted source.
  5. Save the proof.
    Record the task, prompt, follow-up, improvement, and confidence change.
