# AI

<!-- .lead -->
What an AI is, told to a pupil: guessing the next word, sounding right versus being right, made-up answers said with confidence, a bot that agrees too easily, asking well and knowing when to stop, using AI to learn rather than to copy, honesty at school, privacy and voices that lie. A course about language models, read by a small language model.
