New to using AI tools?
You’ll learn more about generative AI in the final e-learning course of this programme, but you don’t need to wait to start exploring how AI tools can help.
Navigate through the expandable boxes below to see how you can save time and enhance your learning experience.
The Course Assistant is an AI tool designed to support you as you take part in each e-learning course. Think of it as a patient tutor available 24/7 to answer your questions and help you recap important points. The Assistant is trained on course content as well as a curated selection of extra resources. We hope you find the Course Assistant useful, but (as with all generative AI tools), it’s good to get into the habit of regularly fact-checking answers as AI can make mistakes.
There are lots of free generative AI tools available online like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Microsoft Copilot. Copy and paste ‘best alternatives to ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Microsoft Copilot’ into your search engine to see what else is out there. Using the same prompt across multiple AI tools will enable you to compare the results and see how they differ. This approach will also help you evaluate the most appropriate tool for your context. If you don’t know how to do something, you can ask the chatbot to help you craft a prompt. For example: “Can you help me [summarise a PDF]? How can I ask you to do that?”
You can use our AI Course Assistant to help you design more effective prompts. Here’s an example: You’re an expert in AI prompting. I’d like a generative AI tool to [help me write an email]. Can you suggest an effective first prompt? Alternatively, you could share your draft prompt and ask your chosen AI tool for feedback. Does it give you any helpful advice? To learn more about the science and art of writing good prompts, you can watch the full recording of Apolitical’s virtual masterclass, Designing Effective AI Prompts. Or ask your peers across the global public service in the AI in Government Community.
