ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini all work in a web browser or a free phone app. Start free, pick one, and use it for one real task this week.

Key points

What the video says

New to AI? The good news is, you don't need anything special to start.

The big chat assistants, like ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini, all work in a web browser on a computer.

Each one also has a free app for your phone.

Start with the free version. It's plenty to learn on.

There are also tools that make pictures from words you type, and tools that read text out loud to you.

You don't need them all. Pick one, and use it for one real task this week, like planning a meal or writing a note.

Do that, and you've started.

That's the basics. Welcome in.
