Five words you'll hear all the time on this journey.
The “brain” that generates text — GPT (OpenAI), Claude (Anthropic) and Gemini (Google) are examples.
The instruction you write asking the AI for something.
The little chunk of text the AI reads and writes — one word becomes one or more of them.
Everything the AI takes into account when answering: your request + the conversation history.
A made-up answer, delivered with full confidence, with no basis in facts.
