Why read it?

I love this book because it presents AI as friendly and approachable, more like a helpful neighbor than something scary robot.

Reading it made me realize that I don’t need to be a computer scientist to benefit from AI; I just need to know how to talk to it. I found his "rules" for interacting with AI incredibly practical for my own daily tasks. It shifted my perspective from worrying about being replaced to figuring out how to be a better "co-pilot" with the technology.

I appreciate how he uses real-world examples that any professional or student can start using…

Whether we know it or like it, AI will change the way we live, work, learn, and teach. I began last summer feeling overwhelmed about AI. This book gave me a foundation upon which to begin building my understanding and approach to artificial intelligence and the LLMs (large language models) like ChatGPT, Copilot, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and Llama. It helped me apply my discipline knowledge in marketing communications to AI frameworks and formulate ways to apply AI in the professional world and then teach that to my college students.

Artificial intelligence is the biggest technological breakthrough of our age, and this book is the best introduction I've read to how each of us can use AI in our daily lives.
