AI is becoming part of how we learn, work, and make decisions. Its prevalence makes it even more important to be thoughtful about its use. Not every tool is neutral, and not every output is reliable. Responsible use means approaching AI with intention, curiosity, and care. Whether you are exploring a new idea, building a business, or shaping policy, these practices can help:
Lead With Purpose
Know how to use AI well, and when. It can help organize information or speed up tasks, but it should not replace human insight.
Stay Aware
Many tools are opensource or non-transparent about their data. Evaluate where information comes from and how it’s shaped.
Use Your Values
Let your ethics and judgment guide how you apply AI in your work. Remember, AI should support our thinking, not replace it.
