This Book Is About Generative AI: As you’ll learn in the very first chapter of this book, there are two types of AI in use today: the older predictive AI and the newer Generative AI. While predictive AI is interesting and useful, and the type we know best—asking Siri questions, getting Alexa to turn on music, having your grammar and spelling checked when you’re writing—it’s the more powerful (and, dare I say, more “intelligent”) generative AI that promises to have the biggest impact on society. Generative AI is so named because it can generate new content—words, pictures, sounds, ideas—that didn’t exist previously. This ability to create something from nothing is what gives generative AI its promise to transform our world. For all these reasons, this book focuses on generative AI—what it is and how to use it. I won’t completely ignore predictive AI, but Generative AI is where it’s at today and where I devote the bulk of my attention and coverage.
The information in Using Artificial Intelligence: Absolute Beginner’s Guide is organized into 13 chapters and a glossary. Here’s how that information is presented:
Chapter 1, “AI: What It Is and How It Works”: This first chapter digs into the ideas and technologies behind AI, focusing on the newer, more powerful generative AI. You’ll learn AI’s history, how it works, and how AI is being used today.
Chapter 2, “The Benefits and Risks of AI”: Here is where I discuss the great ways that AI can help you—and what to watch out for.
Chapter 3, “Getting Started with All-Purpose AI Tools”: This chapter gets into the fun stuff: how to use free and publicly available AI tools—such as ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Meta AI, and Microsoft Copilot —for fun and in practical applications.
Chapter 4, “Using AI to Find the Right Words”: Learn how to use AI to assist in writing everything from email messages and letters to articles and business reports. You can even use AI to write poetry and fiction for your own personal use (you can’t claim AI-written material as your own!)—and edit your existing work to make it read better.
Chapter 5, “Using AI to Find Information”: AI is several steps beyond today’s web-based search engines. Discover how AI can find information faster—and help you understand what it finds—and when you need to verify AI’s output (short answer: always!). Whether you want to figure out how to fix your car or plan dinner for six with picky eaters, AI can help. It can also be a great tool to help you summarize information.
...
Chapter 13, “The Future of AI”: The first dozen chapters of this book tell you where AI is today. This final chapter predicts what’s next for AI—how AI will evolve and how it will affect our lives in the future.
Glossary: This section provides a list of AI-related terms you need to know. Learning these terms won’t make you an AI expert, but using them may make you sound like one.
