  • Effective use of chat-based AI tools | ToolBox

    Effective use of chat-based AI tools est. 60 - 90 min 💡 After this training: The learner is able to understand the basics of artificial intelligence The learner is able to explain how artificial intelligence can be used in personal and professional life. 👀 How to coordinate this training: Explanation of AI You can start from the introductory explanation using the training page from Getting started with technology > What is Artificial Intelligence (AI)? Exercise Let's watch the video together or independently. Disscussion Let's discuss together. Guiding questions: Have you used chat-based AI before? What was your experience? How do you think AI could help in your current work or daily tasks? What concerns do you have about using AI (e.g. privacy, misinformation) Discuss also the ethical considerations of AI: Should you double-check AI-generated content before using it in work documents? Why or why not? Should you tell someone you used AI to write an email? Is it safe to enter private or client-related information into AI tools like ChatGPT or Gemini? Demonstration Use the demonstration tips to demonstration how chat-based AI works. Exercise Let's do the exercise together and discuss the answers. Learners try using AI tools (ChatGPT, Gemini, etc.) If needed, start by making an account Practice giving different types of prompts Share results and discuss improvements Materials needed: Computer 💻 Access to chat-based AI like ChatGPT, Gemini 🧑🏽💻 ✨ Digital skills training about chat-based AI video language 🇬🇧 Please note that this video is from 2023. Explanation Tips 💡 1. Types of AI Models Generative AI – creates text, images, videos (e.g., ChatGPT, DALL·E) Conversational AI – chats and responds (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude) Search-Integrated AI – mixes search + AI (e.g., Perplexity, Bing Copilot) 2. Core Capabilities Natural Language Processing (NLP) Helps AI understand and generate human language – used in chatbots, translation tools, and writing assistants. Image & Speech Recognition Allows AI to identify objects in photos or understand spoken words – used in voice assistants, photo apps, and security tools. Predictive Analytics Uses data to predict future trends or behaviors – helpful in finance, health, marketing, etc. Content Generation Enables AI to create new content – like writing text, designing images, or making videos. 3. Popular AI Tools & Platforms Text : ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude Image : DALL·E, MidJourney, Pixlr, DeepAI Video : InVideo AI, HeyGen, RunwayML Summarization : YouTube video summarizers Multi-Modal : Tools that handle text + image + document input 4. How AI is Used in Daily Life and Work Life Email drafting Resume and cover letter writing Budgeting and contracts Visual design for social media Language translation and proofreading Accessibility (e.g., reading PDFs aloud) 5. Ethical Use & Data Privacy Bias & Fairness : AI can reflect or even amplify human biases present in training data. Always review outputs critically. Data Privacy : Avoid sharing sensitive personal or organizational information (e.g., ID numbers, medical records, confidential work data) when using AI tools. Transparency : Remember that AI doesn’t “know” but generates responses based on patterns; verify important facts from trusted sources. Accountability : Use AI as a support tool, not a final decision-maker, especially in hiring, finance, or legal matters. 6. How AI Understands Input (Prompting) AI doesn’t “think”; it generates based on your prompt. The more structured and specific your prompt, the better the results. Demonstration Tips & Prompt Examples ✍️ Use these scenarios to demonstrate practical applications of AI with ready-made prompt templates. Writing emails 📧 Scenario : Thanking a participant Prompt : “Write a warm thank-you email to someone who attended our workshop on effective AI use.” Scenario : Writing a meeting rescheduling Prompt : “I'm a meeting organizer, but I need to reschedule the date and time. I want to notify participants about this. Write a polite and constructive email.” 2. Responding to emails 📨 Scenario : Accepting participation to an event Prompt : “Write a positive reply to an event on December 7th.” 3. Rewriting for clarity 🔁 Scenario : You’ve written rough notes and want them improved Prompt : “Rewrite this information clearly and professionally.” 4. Getting AI to ask questions first ❓ Scenario : You want to open a café but don’t know where to start Prompt : “I want to open a café. Before suggesting steps, ask me questions about location, target audience, budget, and menu preferences.” Scenario : You want to organize a team building day for your colleagues (10 people) Prompt : “I want to organize a team building day for 10 colleagues. Before suggesting steps, ask me questions about location, target audience, budget, and menu preferences.” Exercise examples 💻 1. Email writing assistant Goal: Learn how chat-based AI helps write and respond to emails. Activity: Use prompts like: “Write a warm thank-you email to someone who attended our workshop.” “Reply to an invitation to an event positively.” Learners test both formal and informal styles using the same prompt. 2. Rewrite and improve Goal: See how AI can clarify or improve rough writing. Activity: Give learners a messy paragraph or handwritten notes. Prompt: “Rewrite this clearly and professionally.” Discuss what was improved and why. 3. AI as a thinking partner Goal: Use AI to ask the right questions before giving answers. Scenarios: “ I want to open a café. Ask me questions before giving advice.” “I want to organize a team-building day for my colleagues.” Learners compare the questions AI asks and decide if they’re helpful. 4. Everyday task helper Goal: Explore daily-life uses of chat-based AI. Activity: Assign tasks like: Planning a weekly task Translating and proofreading a message Creating a to-do list for a small event Learners share creative or unexpected uses they discovered. 5. Work-Life simulation Goal: Practice using AI in professional scenarios. Choose one role-based activity: “Write an email inviting colleagues to a brainstorming meeting.” “Create a pricing template for social media services.” Learners compare AI responses and edit them for accuracy or tone. 👋🏽 Join the Community Ideas on how to create better training?
