AI foundations for everyone
Critical thinking in the age of AI
AI produces fluent answers in seconds. This experience helps people check them, question them and decide when human judgement must lead.
Why it matters now
AI users rank quality control of AI output (50%) and critical thinking (46%) as the human skills that matter more as AI takes on work (Microsoft, 2026).
