AI Fluency — Full 45-Day Curriculum

• Course intro & setup: how the 45 days work, what to expect, and getting your accounts and tools ready.
• What is AI: machine learning, deep learning and generative AI, explained in plain language.
• How GenAI & LLMs work — and why they hallucinate: next-word prediction, not magic — so you know when to trust the answer.
• Meet the major assistants: ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Perplexity — what each is genuinely good at.
• Prompting 1 — Same AI, Different Answer: watch one request improve as you add information, then learn RTF: role, task, format.
• Sat — optional Fun Saturday for doubts, sharing and hands-on help. Sunday off.

• Prompting 2 — What would the AI have to guess?: the diagnostic question behind every good prompt, plus CO-STAR for anything another person reads.
• Prompting 3 — System instructions, roles & delimiters: say something once instead of every time, and mark where your instruction ends.
• Prompting 4 — Zero-shot, one-shot, few-shot: show the AI an example instead of describing what you want.
• Prompting 5 — Image prompting: subject, style, composition and lighting; generating and editing visuals.
• Prompting 6 — Video & avatar prompting: storyboards, shot and movement language, cinematic clips and talking-avatar video.
• Sat — optional Fun Saturday for doubts, sharing and hands-on help. Sunday off.

• Prompting 7 — An answer you can trust and use: reasoning prompts, asking more than once, grounding answers in your own documents, controlling the output shape.
• Prompting 8 — Voice, music & sound: voiceovers, background music, sound effects, dubbing and real-time voice AI.
• Prompting 9 — Adversarial prompting: how prompt injection and jailbreaks work, and how to protect your own assistants. Defensive and awareness-level.
• How websites & web apps work: the mental model behind every site you use. No coding required.
• Vibe Coding I: building real websites with AI builders — and your Project 1 portfolio kickoff.
• Sat — optional Fun Saturday for doubts, sharing and hands-on help. Sunday off.

• Vibe Coding II: the build-test-improve loop: reproducible bug reports, one change at a time, and deploying.
• Deep research: scoping questions, primary vs secondary sources, citation discipline — and an analyst-style showcase.
• Data & spreadsheets with AI: asking business questions of a spreadsheet; charts, trends and sanity checks.
• Document AI & IDP: pulling structured data out of an invoice, a bill and a handwritten note.
• Privacy, DPDP & responsible AI: the never-paste list, redaction and consent — plus real hallucination cases, deepfakes and AI scams.
• Sat — optional Fun Saturday for doubts, sharing and hands-on help. Sunday off.

• Custom assistants: designing a reusable assistant with your own instructions, examples and boundaries.
• Professional communication & workplace AI: emails, proposals and reports that do not sound machine-written.
• AI presentations & visual storytelling: one message per slide, evidence-based structure, and AI deck tools.
• Connected AI: connectors, MCP and browser automation — how AI reaches your files and apps. Awareness-level.
• RAG, AI agents & agentic AI: why they exist and where they break. Awareness-level.
• Sat — optional Fun Saturday for doubts, sharing and hands-on help. Sunday off.

• Claude Code, Codex & AI that acts: builder vs coding agent vs browser agent; diffs, permissions and review. Awareness-level.
• Project 2 — planning, build & deploy: your business or public-facing website, from brief to live.
• Project notes & presentation prep: explaining both projects: purpose, tool, challenge, limitation.
• Prompt Clinic: bring your worst real prompt, diagnose it against everything you have learned, and repair it live.
• Classroom test — AI Fluency Foundations: a friendly, closed-book checkpoint on what was actually taught in class.
• Sat — optional Fun Saturday for doubts, sharing and hands-on help. Sunday off.

• AGI, ASI & the future of AI: narrow AI vs AGI vs ASI; capability vs autonomy; honest uncertainty about timelines.
