Ten days. One hour each. A skill that pays off for years. This book teaches you to write, think, learn, plan, and analyze with AI without jargon, without hype, and without getting burned by confident-sounding nonsense. Whether you've barely tried AI or use it every day, this book is for you. Maybe you tried it once, got a response that seemed impressive, and thought: Is this even correct? So you closed the tab and went back to the slow way. Or maybe you're the opposite, you use AI constantly for assignments, for work, for everything. But the outputs are just okay. You're copying and pasting without really thinking. You know there's a better way to use these tools. Nobody's shown you what that looks like. AI Literacy for Real Life gives you that system. A structured 10-day program designed to be finished, not abandoned. Each day takes about an hour: thirty minutes of reading, thirty minutes of hands-on practice with your real work. No fluff. No filler. Just the skills you need, in the order you need them. Days 1–3 build your foundation: what AI actually is (in plain English), how to decide when to trust it, and a single prompt template that handles ninety percent of what you'll ever need. Days 4–8 are the practical core. Each day focuses on one skill: writing, thinking, learning, planning, analyzing, and walks you through applying AI to real tasks. Days 9–10 help you build a lasting system: reusable templates, a weekly routine, and a ninety-day roadmap for continued growth. The approach that makes it work: Verification-first. Before you learn to get more from AI, you'll learn to avoid getting fooled by it. By Day 2, you'll have a simple framework for knowing when to trust AI output, when to verify, and when to skip AI entirely. Tool-agnostic. ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot, it doesn't matter. These principles work across all of them and won't expire when the next update drops. Workflow-driven. No hypotheticals. Every chapter applies AI to tasks you already do. You'll finish each day having used AI on your real work. By Day 10, you'll be able to: Write emails, reports, and documents in a fraction of the time - Break through decisions you've been stuck on - Learn new topics faster than you thought possible - Turn vague plans into concrete action steps - Analyze and summarize information without missing what matters - Have a reusable system of templates and routines that compounds over time Plus: 75 ready-to-use prompts, a safety and privacy checklist, and dedicated chapters for students and job seekers. This isn't about becoming an AI expert. It's about becoming competent, knowing enough to use these tools effectively, safely, and without dependency. Your ten days start now.
