Working with AI

Direct It, Check It, Make Things, Build Things

You do not need to code to get real work out of AI; you need to know how to direct it, how to check it, and how to make and build things with it. This course is the practical half of the story: writing a prompt that gets what you meant, creating images, sound and video responsibly, catching the mistakes before they leave your hands, turning an idea into a working tool, and understanding what an AI agent is before you hand one a task. Five lessons, each ending with something you made.

5 lessons, self-paced.

The course trailer

After this course you can

  • Write a prompt that gives the context, the role and the format you need, so the first draft is usable.
  • Brief an AI to create an image, a voice or a short video, and judge when a generated piece is acceptable to use.
  • Check an AI answer for invented facts, wrong numbers and missing sources before you rely on it.
  • Turn a repeated task into a small tool or app without writing code, and hand it over with clear notes.
  • Explain what an AI agent does, where it can act for you, and what to decide before you let it.
