Just Getting Started
For people who've never used an AI tool and want to understand what this is all about.
A Wharton professor writing practical, jargon-free posts about what AI can actually do. Start with his guides on thinking about AI and using it effectively. The single best voice in this space.
Free, modular walkthrough from "what is AI" through your first real prompts. Good self-paced structure that doesn't assume you know anything going in.
The original non-technical AI course, still one of the best. Free to audit on Coursera. About six hours total — a weekend afternoon well spent.
Free workshops and short courses from Google. The "Make AI Work for You" track is particularly solid if you're a business owner looking for practical starting points.
Going Deeper
For people who've tried ChatGPT or Claude a few times and want to get more out of it.
Straight from the team behind Claude. Clear, practical, and surprisingly readable for official documentation. If you want to understand how to talk to AI effectively, start here.
Foundational concepts, tools catalog, use cases, and ethical considerations. More academic in tone but excellent depth if you want to really understand what's happening.
Concise, practical overview of how to get better results from any AI tool. Harvard's information technology team keeping it refreshingly straightforward.
Workshops, certifications, and community. ChatGPT-focused, but the foundational concepts transfer to any AI tool you'll use.
For Parents & Families
For people navigating AI with their kids.
Best-in-class family resources. Includes a conversation guide for exploring AI basics together and a podcast on raising kids in the age of AI. A great starting point for the dinner table.
Conversation starters and practical guidance developed with child development experts. Helpful if your kids are already using AI and you want to be part of that conversation.
Staying Current
For people who want to keep up without drowning in hype.
Yes, listed twice on purpose. Mollick's newsletter is the single best way to stay informed about AI without the noise. Subscribe to this one first.
Tracks the entire AI literacy ecosystem. Their periodic reviews are excellent roundups of what's new in AI education and resources.
More technical than the others on this list, but incredibly well-written. Good for when you're ready to peek under the hood and want someone who explains things honestly.
Need a guide, not just a reading list?
