Build on it · Class 05
Plan a week of dinners with AI and catch its mistakes, learn to spot AI-powered scams and fake voices, and write family AI rules everyone signs.
Scheduled once 10 people ask for it. The date and format are confirmed before anyone pays.
This class is built to be taken together: a parent with a teen, an adult child with an older parent, or anyone running a busy household. We start with something useful, a week of dinners for a fictional family with an allergy, a vegetarian, and a budget, and practice catching what the AI gets wrong. Then we get to the conversation every family is having whether they planned to or not: how scammers now use cloned voices and perfectly written texts, what kids should never type into a chatbot, and which settings to check. You leave with a family call-back plan and a written set of AI ground rules your household wrote together.
Before you start: Class 01, or comfortable asking ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Copilot a question and following up when the answer misses.

Paste this into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Copilot. It uses a fictional family, so you don't need to share anything about yours.
I'm planning dinners for a fictional family of five for Monday through Friday. Who's eating: - Two adults, one works until 6:30 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays - A 15-year-old who eats no meat (eggs, dairy, and fish are fine) - A 9-year-old with a peanut allergy (no peanuts or peanut oil, anywhere) - A 74-year-old grandparent watching salt Rules: - Grocery budget for these five dinners: about $90 - Tuesday and Thursday dinners must take 30 minutes or less - One dinner should make leftovers for Friday lunch - Already in the kitchen: rice, a bag of frozen broccoli, eggs, canned black beans Give me: 1. A table: day, dinner, cook time, and how the vegetarian teen is covered 2. A grocery list grouped by store section, leaving out what we already have 3. A short list of anything you're unsure about, such as ingredients that sometimes contain peanuts
Before you trust the answer, check:
Set up a shared assistant for meals, schedules, activities, and household logistics that the whole family can actually use.

Enough for the two things most families need first: a practiced habit of checking what AI says, and a written agreement about scams, privacy, and ground rules. Untangling a messy family schedule, homework help that tutors instead of doing the work, and building a reusable family planning assistant are follow-on labs that build on the rules you write here.
Yes, that's the point. The exercises are built for mixed-age pairs. A teen attends with a parent or guardian who stays for the whole session. Teens need to meet the age rules of the AI tool they use, and we go over those in class.
No. Everything works with free ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Copilot. Nothing in this class depends on a feature behind a paid plan.
This class covers the household: meals, scams, kids' privacy, and family rules. AI for Financial Empowerment (Class 06) is about money: spending, recurring costs, and getting ready to talk to a professional. Many households take both.
Class 06
Redact a bank export, sort a month of spending with AI, check the totals yourself, and find every charge that repeats and what it costs a year.
Class 03
Write a one-page document about your life and how you like help, load it into your AI tool, and use it to turn a brain dump into a realistic week.
This is the LifeQuest capstone. From here, learners move into ongoing build sessions and community projects.
Understand what ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Copilot actually do, pick one, catch its mistakes, and know what you'll never paste in.
Learn a four-part way to ask AI for what you want, fix answers that miss, and leave with three tested prompt templates for your own weekly tasks.
