Basics of AI and ChatGPT for students

---

1️⃣ What is AI?

• Definition (Simple): AI is like giving a computer a brain that can learn.

• Analogy: Think of your smartphone. Earlier it only followed fixed commands (calculator, music). Now it learns from data — like YouTube suggesting videos, or Google Maps predicting traffic. That’s AI.

• Example: When you order from Swiggy, AI decides:

  • Which restaurant shows up first,

  • What food to recommend,

  • And even the fastest delivery route.

2️⃣ Difference Between AI, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity

• AI (General): Big umbrella. Like “Sports” is a category (cricket, football, hockey all inside it).

• ChatGPT: A type of AI (like cricket in sports). It’s good at understanding and generating human-like text.

• Gemini (by Google): Another AI chatbot, but it connects strongly with Google Search + Google ecosystem (Maps, YouTube).

• Perplexity: A chatbot that is like a student who always carries reference books. It directly shows sources, links, and citations.

• Analogy:

  • AI → Sports

  • ChatGPT → Cricket

  • Gemini → Football

  • Perplexity → Hockey

Student Example:

• Want to chat and learn concepts → ChatGPT

• Want Google-powered answers → Gemini

• Want answers + sources (like homework references) → Perplexity

3️⃣ What is ChatGPT?

• Definition: ChatGPT is a chatbot made by OpenAI that talks, explains, and helps you study like a friendly teacher.

• Analogy: Imagine you have a “super-smart friend” who knows everything, never gets tired, and explains in your language.

• Example:

  • Ask: “Explain Newton’s Third Law in cricket language.”

  • ChatGPT: “When the ball hits the bat, the bat pushes back on the ball with equal force — that’s why the ball bounces away.”

5️⃣ How to Get Best Results (Prompting Skills)

The secret is: The better you ask, the better AI answers.
This is called Prompt Engineering.

📝 Tips for You:

1. Be Specific: Instead of “Explain maths”, ask “Explain Pythagoras theorem in 5 steps with an example of a cricket ground.”

2. Ask for Style: “Explain like I’m 10 years old” vs “Explain like a topper student” → you get different results.

3. Use Examples You Like: Add context: cricket, Bollywood, gaming, school life.

4. Use ChatGPT for Revision: Ask it to make flashcards, quizzes, summaries.

5. Cross-Check Facts: Don’t blindly trust — always verify with textbook.
