Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence (AI) impacts all fields of study and is not subject specific. This guide is here to support research and learning involving Artificial Intelligence.

What is AI Literacy?

AI Literacy is having the skills and competencies enabling individuals to use AI technologies and applications; communicate and collaborate effectively with AI; and question AI design and implementation while critically evaluating the information produced. 

Being “AI literate” is the ability to understand, use, and reflect critically on AI applications without necessarily being able to create and develop AI models like someone with a computer science background. Understanding how to use AI as a tool to enhance your work is how you become AI literate.

Within education, it can be used as a tool to enhance your learning and, like all tools, needs to be used in an ethical and responsible way.
