Introduction to AI for Humans Course

Welcome to Module 2 of AI for Humans! Here, we’re not diving straight into the tech—we’re focusing on why AI matters now. It’s reshaping how we work, and the key to thriving isn’t mastering every bit of tech, but adopting the right mindset.
In this module, you’ll learn what AI actually is, why it’s relevant today, and how to stay ahead by thinking strategically, not just technically. You don’t need to be an expert, but you do need to understand how to use AI to stay relevant.
Let’s get started!

This isn’t about robots. It’s about relevance.

What AI actually is (and why that’s changed)

Why this matters, what AI really is, and why mindset beats tech

In Module 3, you'll dive into the nuts and bolts of AI and learn how to think alongside it, rather than just using it. We’ll explore how generative AI works with simple examples (like Lego), understand its strengths and limitations, and show you how to turn it into a collaborative partner for creativity and problem-solving. By the end of this module, you’ll be ready to work smarter with AI, thinking critically and adapting its output to your needs.

Welcome to Module 4. This is the practical one, where we'll talk about how to use AI yourself. You'll explore scenarios and have fun with examples

How to use AI yourself

This module is where you start to take the steering wheel and driving AI yourself. For this course, the instructions are written for use with ChatGPT, and you can also use Microsoft Copilot if that is the only option available for you.
You don’t need to be an expert in either ChatGPT or Copilot. For this course, all you need is the ability to type in a request and read the response. We’ll show you exactly what to say – and how to get better results by nudging the AI the right way.

AI isn’t just a tool for speeding things up – it can also stretch your thinking. In this module, you’ll learn how to use AI to test ideas, spark creativity, explore opposing views, and clarify your own position. Not as a crutch, but as a smart, slightly unpredictable thinking buddy.

AI isn’t just changing how we write – it’s changing how we see. In this module, you’ll explore how AI creates images from scratch, and how that visual power can help you bring ideas to life, test concepts faster, and communicate more clearly at work – no design degree required.

Welcome to the Responsible AI module, where you’ll see real-world wins and mishaps that prove why ethics, bias and privacy can’t be an afterthought. Each lesson gives you clear checks, prompts and tools so you can harness AI confidently while keeping people safe and the lawyers quiet.

Why settle for one assistant when you can build a whole team? In this final module, you’ll learn how to create custom GPTs and Copilot Agents that work like your personal writing intern, marketing intern, and even your strategy sidekick. It’s not about coding – it’s about getting AI to work the way you work.
