Frequently asked questions
Answers to the things people ask most often about the Beginner AI Course for Non-Technical Adults.
Who is the Beginner AI Course for Non-Technical Adults for?
It is designed for parents who want to understand the tools their children already use, professionals building AI confidence for work, business owners looking for practical ways to save time, and curious adults who want a calm, structured starting point. No technical background is assumed.
Do I need coding or technical experience to take this course?
No. The course is built for people with no coding or technical background. Everything is explained in plain English, without jargon or technical theory.
What will I learn on the course?
You will learn what AI is and is not and why large language models matter, what tools like ChatGPT and image generators actually do well and where they fail, how to use AI for writing, summarising, brainstorming, research and everyday admin tasks, and how to spot common errors, overconfidence and privacy risks.
Does the course cover AI risks and safety?
Yes. A core part of the course covers using AI more safely: spotting common errors, recognising overconfident answers, understanding privacy risks, and avoiding bad habits before they become expensive mistakes.
Is this course suitable if I feel late to AI?
Yes. The course is built for people who are curious but overwhelmed. It gives you a calm, structured starting point and focuses on useful understanding rather than overwhelming detail.
When will the course be available?
The course is still being built. I would rather take the time to get it right than rush something out, so I have not set a date yet. If you sign up for new blog posts, you will be the first to hear when it opens.
How do I get started?
Start with the blog. Each post covers one real question in plain English, and you can sign up to get new ones as they are published. That costs nothing and is the best way to see whether the way I explain things suits you.
Still have a question?
Tell me what you'd like to know and I'll write about it. You can also sign up to get new posts as they're published — and you'll be first to hear when the course is ready.
