Who this is for

Made for parents.
Not tech enthusiasts.

You've heard a lot about AI and you want to understand it properly — not to become an expert, but to use it sensibly yourself and help your child do the same. This guide gets you there with real family examples.

You'll get a lot from this if you…

  • Have heard a lot about AI but haven’t used it much yourself
  • Worry about AI and homework, privacy, or fake images
  • Want practical rules your family can actually agree on
  • Want to help your child use AI well, not just ban it

This probably isn't for you if…

  • You already use AI tools daily and confidently
  • You want a technical explanation of how AI models are built
  • You’re looking for workplace AI training
What's inside

Seven modules. All practical.

Each module is a short read with something to try straight away — from your first three conversations with a chatbot to writing your family’s AI agreement.

01
AI Tools in Plain English Free sample

What chatbots are, what they’re genuinely good at, and where they let you down.

02
Getting Started Safely

Accounts, age limits, privacy settings — and the postcard test for what never to type in.

03
Asking Well

A simple recipe for useful answers: school letters, meal plans, and explaining any topic at your child’s level.

04
Checking the Answer

Why AI makes things up with total confidence, and a five-minute routine for catching it.

05
AI and Your Child’s Homework

Tutor or shortcut? What to look for, what to ask, and the one prompt every child should know.

06
Fakes, Images and Privacy

Deepfakes, voice-cloning scams, protecting family photos — and agreeing a family code word.

07
Your Family AI Agreement

A short, editable set of household rules you write together — for adults too.

Q

Quant and AI & Data Professional, Tier 1 Investment Bank

I spend my working life inside code, data and machine-learning models. As a parent, I found most advice about AI was either breathless hype or blanket warnings. This guide is the practical middle ground: how to use these tools well yourself, and how to help your child do the same — in plain English.

Common questions

FAQ

I’ve never used ChatGPT. Is this for me?

Yes — Module 1 starts from scratch, and you’ll have your first useful conversations with a chatbot by the end of it.

Which AI tools does it cover?

It’s deliberately tool-neutral. Everything works with any mainstream chatbot — ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot, Claude or whatever your child’s school uses.

Will it go out of date?

The habits it teaches — protect your details, ask well, check the answer, think before sharing — don’t date. Specific settings and product details will be kept up to date.

How is it different from the parents’ guide?

“What Is My Child Actually Learning?” explains AI from your child’s side. This course is about you using AI tools yourself — and helping your child use them well.
