The answer looked right. It was wrong, and it was sure. This course opens the machine so you can see why: where the next word comes from, what the model read and what it never saw, why it forgets, how to pin it to a document so it stops inventing, and what happens to your own thinking when you let it do the thinking. Twenty lessons, nothing to install and no code: for anyone who uses these tools or lives with someone who does. After them you look at any AI answer the way a doctor looks at an X-ray.
