AI Tools

Learning objective: Explore common categories of AI tools.

Understand

There is an AI tool for almost every kind of work.

AI tools include chat assistants, image generators, coding helpers, and writing aids. The skill is choosing the right tool for the task and combining it with your own judgment. Tools change fast, so focus on transferable habits.

Analogy: AI tools are like power tools: they speed up work, but you still guide them.
