Full Description
AI for the Ordinary is a timely and accessible guide that demystifies artificial intelligence for everyday citizens and non-technical professionals. It makes a compelling case that AI is no longer the exclusive domain of coders and technologists - it is a civic, economic, and personal imperative. From managing household routines to making strategic decisions at work, this book shows how AI literacy is now essential for life and leadership in the 21st century.
Written in plain English with no coding or math required, the book bridges the gap between complex technologies and real-world relevance. It explores how AI tools are already embedded in our phones, browsers, and workplaces, and how ordinary users can engage with them safely and effectively. Through global examples, hypothetical case studies, and ethics-aware guidance, readers learn to make informed choices about privacy, bias, and automation. The book also addresses the awareness gap - what users know, what they often miss, and why it matters - empowering people to use AI not just to save time, but to create, learn, connect, and grow.
This book is designed for students, professionals, and lifelong learners. It is ideal for business, public policy, and liberal arts programs seeking to integrate AI across the curriculum, and it supports corporate learning and executive education initiatives with a pragmatic, human-centered approach. Whether navigating smart homes, managing teams, or preparing for a first job, AI for the Ordinary delivers the foundational knowledge and practical habits needed to thrive in an AI-immersed world.
