You've heard everyone talking about AI. You're ready to try it. But what do you actually say?

You don't need a computer science degree to use AI well. You don't need to learn "prompt engineering." You just need to know how to have a conversation, and that's exactly what this book teaches.

Talking to AI follows Jack, a complete beginner, through 15 short, practical sessions. By the end, he's planned a dinner party, written an invitation, and learned to get clear, useful answers from AI on the very first try. You'll learn right alongside him.

Every session pairs a plain-English explanation with a real AI conversation you can learn from at a glance. Read it in any order, or straight through in a single sitting.

Whether you're curious about ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or any other AI, the skills are the same. This book gives you all of them.
