About Me
Hello everyone!

My name is Qasim and I hope to be your potential tutor but first, you probably want to know who I am and what I am like and I’ll will tell you.

I am a young adult who is trying to get a degree in computing science who computing is basically my life and I know all the ins and outs a of computer machine.

From me you can learn the basics of how to use a computer and how to build a computer if your really into that type of technology. Learning how to use a computer from basics to advanced is a big jump but trust me is not hard if you already know how to use a computer.

I also love meeting new people! It’s kinda my hobby to find and meet new friends and I think apprentus is a great platform for this.
I am very open and chill person and has a lot of patience and will not judge what so ever and will do all in his power to help what you want to know.

Thank you and I hope we meet soon.

Objective: To understand AI without fear, to use it to simplify one's life and to know how to identify digital traps.

1: Demystifying AI (What exactly is it?)
AI is not a movie robot: Difference between fiction and reality.

How it works (simply): The image of the "giant library": AI has read billions of books and uses them to predict the continuation of a sentence or create an image.

Where is it already present? Spell checkers, Netflix/YouTube suggestions, GPS, and voice assistants (Siri/Alexa).

2: Using AI to make life easier
Conversing with AI (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini):

Ask him to write an administrative email or a complex letter.

Summarize a long newspaper article or document.

Plan a travel itinerary or find recipe ideas with what's left in the fridge.

AI for creativity and memory:

Generate images to illustrate a birthday card (Midjourney, DALL-E).

Using AI to restore or colorize old family photos.

3: Learning to "talk" to AI (The Art of the Prompt)
The context method: Why "Give me a cake recipe" is less effective than "I am allergic to gluten and I am hosting 4 people, give me a simple chocolate cake recipe".

The expert's role: Learning to tell AI "Act like a travel guide" or "Act like an expert gardener".

4: Precautions and Critical Thinking (The Survival Guide)
"Hallucinations": Understand that AI can make false claims with complete certainty (never take medical or legal advice from AI without verification).

Privacy protection:

Never give sensitive data (social security number, passwords, bank details) to an AI.

Knowing that everything we write to the AI is potentially used to train it.

Spotting "Deepfakes":

How to recognize a doctored image or video (details on the hands, strange reflections, slightly metallic voice).

Verify the information: the golden rule of cross-referencing sources.

5: Ethics and Impacts (To go further)
Copyright: Who owns an image created by AI?

The environmental impact: The water and energy consumption of AI servers.

The future: Will AI replace us or assist us?
