SUMMARY:Make AI Work for You
DESCRIPTION:Generative AI is growing fast. Every week\, new websites and apps appear. It can feel overwhelming. But with the right guidance\, you can learn to use these tools with confidence. \nThere are many options available. Some of the most popular are ChatGPT\, Google Gemini\, and Apple Intelligence. Each one has unique strengths. ChatGPT is known for its conversational style. Google Gemini focuses on integration with Google’s services. Apple Intelligence connects directly with Apple devices. Together\, they offer a wide range of possibilities. \nIn this class\, we will explore these tools step by step. First\, you will see what makes each platform different. Then\, we will compare their strengths and weaknesses. This way\, you can decide which tool fits your needs best. \nNext\, we will focus on prompts. Prompts are the questions or instructions you give to the AI. The way you write a prompt can change the answer you get. For example\, a short and vague prompt may give you a broad response. A clear and detailed prompt can give you a precise answer. With practice\, you will learn how to shape prompts to get the results you want. \nWe will also cover examples. You will practice creating prompts for writing\, research\, and creative projects. In addition\, you will learn how to adjust your prompts when the answer is not what you expected. Step by step\, you will build confidence in using these tools. \nBy the end of this class\, you will understand the best options for generative AI. More importantly\, you will know how to interact with these tools in a smart and effective way. You will leave with practical skills that you can apply right away. \nGenerative AI is powerful. With the right approach\, you can make it work for you. \nThis seminar is produced by Mike Gershbein with VSP Chicago: \n\nMichael Gershbein\, Founder \nWe are your Chicagoland group and in-home tech tutors! \nhttp://www.VSPChicago.com \n847.204.2916 \nFacebook  X  LinkedIn
