AI Literacy

What it is

AI literacy is understanding what AI is, how it works, its capabilities and limitations, and how to use it effectively and ethically. It's the knowledge needed to be an informed participant in an AI-influenced world, whether as a user, citizen, or professional.

Why it matters

AI literacy is becoming as important as traditional literacy. It helps you use AI tools effectively, evaluate AI claims critically, make informed decisions about AI in your life, and participate meaningfully in societal discussions about AI. This glossary is part of building AI literacy.
