Week 1 – Day 2: Understanding AI Models
Claude
What Claude actually is
Claude is a large language model (LLM), similar to ChatGPT, designed to understand and respond to written language.
Like other AI chat tools:
- You type messages
- It reads the words and patterns
- It responds in natural language
Claude is often noticed for being:
- Calm and structured
- Good with longer explanations
- Comfortable handling more context at once
It still works through conversation — you don’t need special commands.
What people commonly use it for
Most beginners use Claude when they want help with:
- Long text (notes, articles, documents)
- Clear, step-by-step explanations
- Summarising information
- Rewriting or simplifying detailed content
- Thinking through something without rushing
You can treat it like:
- A careful explainer
- A summariser
- Or a guide for complex topics
How to use it (important mental model)
Claude works best when you:
- Give it more context instead of less
- Paste the full text or explain the situation clearly
- Let it see the whole picture
You don’t need to break things into tiny prompts.If the response is too long, you can always ask it to shorten or simplify.
One small thing to try today
Ask Claude to summarise something long in simple terms.
Why this works:
- There’s no pressure to write the “perfect” question
- You can see how it handles longer information
- You practise asking for clarity
Example:“Can you summarise this in simple terms for someone new to the topic?”
Simple step-by-step
- Open the AI chat tool
- Paste a longer piece of text or explanation
- Ask for a simple summary
- If it’s still too detailed, reply with:“Can you make this shorter and clearer?”
Do not start a new chat.Just continue the conversation.
Why this helps
- You learn that different AI models have different strengths
- Long or complex information feels less overwhelming
- You build confidence working with more detail
- You get better at choosing the right AI for the task
This helps you understand why one AI doesn’t need to do everything.
