Show best practices and myths
✓

Do this

  • → Give context: who it’s for, what good looks like, and limits
  • → Check important facts in a second source
  • → Ask AI to explain in simple words, with examples
  • → Iterate: “Make it shorter / friendlier / add steps”
  • → Use AI to draft, you make the final decision
✕

Don’t do this

  • → Don’t paste passwords, bank or health ID numbers
  • → Don’t trust confident answers about prices, law or medicine without checking
  • → Don’t pay for many overlapping tools at once
  • → Don’t share someone else’s private info or photos without permission
  • → Don’t use AI images of real people to mislead
Myth

“AI knows everything.”
Fact: It predicts likely answers. It can be wrong, out of date, or invent details.

Myth

“I need to be technical.”
Fact: If you can write a clear message to a helpful person, you can write a good prompt.

Myth

“The most expensive tool is best.”
Fact: The best tool is the one that fits your one job, the Finder helps you pick.
