Kitchen Table AI

AI help, explained like we're sitting at the kitchen table.

Plain-English, step-by-step guides to tools like ChatGPT and Claude, plus straight talk about the new AI scams. No jargon, no rushing, no judgment.

Who this is for

For parents and grandparents

You have heard about AI and want to try it, or you just want to know what's real and what's a scam. Every guide uses big text, numbered steps, and a print button.

For the grown kids who help them

You are the family tech support. Send a link instead of explaining it over the phone for the fourth time. Each guide has a tip just for helpers.

For caregivers and helpers

You help others with tech as an aide, a neighbor, or a church or senior center volunteer. Print a guide, work through it together, and leave a copy behind.
