Talking to AI: A Practical Guide for Everyone (Large Print Edition) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798995476016)

You've heard everyone talking about AI. You're ready to try it. But what do you actually say?

You don't need a computer science degree to use AI well. You don't need to learn "prompt engineering." You just need to know how to have a conversation--and that's exactly what this book teaches.

Talking to AI follows Jack, a complete beginner, through 15 short, practical sessions. By the end, he's planned a dinner party, written an invitation, and learned to get clear, useful answers from AI on the very first try. You'll learn right alongside him.

What you'll pick up in under an hour:

- How to ask a question that gets a useful answer (not a generic one)
- What to say when the AI gives you something too long, too complicated, or just wrong
- How to protect your privacy while still getting help
- How to tell when the AI is making things up--and what to do about it
- How to get AI to write things you can actually keep, send, or print

No jargon. No theory. No fluff.

Every session pairs a plain-English explanation with a real AI conversation you can learn from at a glance. Read it in any order, or straight through in a single sitting.

Whether you're curious about ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or any other AI--the skills are the same. This book gives you all of them.
