Text us your thoughts!The AI literacy gap is quietly separating the people who benefit from AI and the people who get left behind — and most coverage never explains what it actually is. This is not about coding skills or technical knowledge; it is about knowing how to have the right kind of conversation with these tools. The gap comes down to one mental shift: treating AI as a thinking partner instead of a search engine. The difference between a generic prompt and a fully contextualized one is not subtle — it is the difference between a bread roll and the whole buffet.
