Prompting looks simple — just type your question, right?
But the difference between a clear prompt and a vague one is huge.
One gives insight.
The other makes you think, “What on earth is that?”

Why is AI suddenly so powerful?
Because of one breakthrough: transformers.
Instead of reading a sentence word by word, transformers use attention, which lets them see the whole sentence at once — and understand how every word connects.

⚙️ We use AI daily — but how many really understand what’s happening under the hood?
AI doesn’t think. It predicts — one word at a time.
And knowing how that works changes everything.
Curiosity is the real literacy.

AI doesn’t replace human intelligence — it extends it.
The power lies in AI agents — digital assistants you can train to work your way.
They format, research, and automate the grind so you can focus on insight, creativity, and control.
Think with AI don't fear it.

🎧 Writers, do you do this too?
When I’m working on fiction, I often use music to get into the mindset—and even the voice—of my characters. A melody, rhythm, or lyric can help me tune into their tone in a way nothing else can.
Curious to know, do any other writers out there use music like this?

A handful of labs now train frontier models — curating data, values & outputs. These aren’t neutral tools. They shape what we see, believe, and trust.

Inclusion should be about belonging, not just identity. Too often, we close down space for reflection and disagreement in the name of safety. But real inclusion means making room for honest conversation—even when we don’t all agree.
