A Word About AI

AI has made a big difference in the way we study and, if used properly, it can be incredibly helpful.

Depending on my clients' needs, I use a selection of AI tools and other technology. However, it's important to understand that AI is only a tool. It has limitations and can be unreliable.

AI is not a brain. It's just a data sorter.

It's most effective when it's used as support for what you're doing and not as your only method of instruction.

Use AI tools to enhance your study experience, but check it carefully and make sure you get guidance from a human as well.
