AI Basics

Start from zero

What AI is, where you already meet it, and why it gets things wrong. Two levels, free, no sign-up.

No account, and nothing is stored

You do not sign in, and we do not record that you were here or how you did. The quiz is marked in your browser and the result never leaves your device. That means no progress tracking and no verifiable certificate — you can print your own — which is the trade for collecting nothing about you. Teachers are welcome to use this in a classroom without anyone creating an account.

Starter

6 topics 12 questions from 36Anyone meeting AI for the first time, from about ten years old upwards. No prior knowledge needed.

Next Steps

How it works, what it does to what you see, and what you can ask for

For when you have the basics and want to know what is actually happening. Covers how models are trained, why your feed shows you what it does, deepfakes, using AI in your work, and the rights you have over decisions made about you.
