Five Big Ideas of AI

The mental model every kid deserves before their first algorithm.

AI senses

Machines see, hear, and read the world through data.

AI thinks in steps

Every model follows a recipe — a step-by-step plan.

AI learns from examples

Show it a thousand cats, it starts to spot cats.

AI talks

Language models turn words into predictions and back.

AI changes our world

How we use it shapes what it becomes.
