This program provides a practical, grounded introduction to how large language models (LLMs) can support everyday work in homes, businesses, nonprofits, and public agencies. Participants will examine where these tools perform well—such as drafting, summarizing, organizing information, conducting basic analysis, and supporting customer or client communication—and where they consistently fall short, including issues of factual reliability, domain limitations, bias, privacy, and overconfidence. Rather than positioning artificial intelligence as a replacement for human judgment, the session frames LLMs as decision-support tools that can reduce routine workload when used carefully and transparently. Through real-world use cases, the program explores common failure modes and key considerations related to data sharing, verification, responsible deployment, and energy management, while also introducing core prompt-engineering concepts and the fundamentals of building simple AI agents to automate repeatable tasks. Emphasis is placed on realistic capabilities, clear boundaries, and responsible adoption so individuals and organizations can achieve efficiency gains without introducing new operational or ethical risks.
