Dotty Scott explains why treating AI like Google doesn't work. Instead of keyword searches, tell AI what you're working on, where you're stuck, and ask for help. A conversation beats a query.

AI feels overwhelming because you're using it like Google. Stop searching, start talking. Most women open AI and think, what do I type? What's the right question? What if I do it wrong? Because we've been trained to search, not converse. Google expects perfect keywords. AI expects context. Instead of asking one big question, try this. Here's what I'm working on. Here's where I'm stuck. Help me think this through. That's it. AI works best when you treat it like a conversation, not a test you can fail. Have you been trying to use AI like Google? Comment yes or I did. You're not bad at AI, you've just been using it the old way.
