Talking to an AI — Learning the Language of Prompts

Teach participants how to interact with generative AI tools like ChatGPT using clear and intentional prompts.

What We’ll Cover:

• What is a “prompt”? How AI responds based on how we ask
• Good vs. vague prompts
• Common use cases: summarizing, writing assistance, and question-asking
• What AI can’t do: no memory, understanding, or personal context

Activity:

• Live demo with ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, and Gemini
• Participants suggest prompts and observe how wording affects responses
• Optional hands-on time to try a prompt
