Discuss your goalsYOUR PRACTICE COULD LOOK LIKE THIS
My AI results are inconsistent
A task goes well once, then falls short the next time. You keep rewriting the request without knowing which ingredients made the difference.
- Define what good looks likeChoose one recurring task. Describe its audience, purpose and quality standards, then select an example you can appropriately use.
- Compare and refineTest a clearer request, add relevant context and give focused feedback. Compare the results against the same standards instead of relying on first impressions.
- Keep the useful ingredientsRecord the context, examples and checks that helped. Try the approach on another instance and note what needs to change.
WHAT YOU COULD CARRY FORWARD
A repeatable task brief
A reusable statement of purpose, context, examples and quality checks, with notes on when the approach needs adapting.
Fluency is a useful fit when you already use AI and want a more consistent personal practice you can explain.

I need to defend a recommendation
You are preparing a briefing from several sources. AI can summarize them, but the audience will expect you to explain the evidence and your judgment.
- Understand the sourcesIdentify the decision and read the material it depends on. Distinguish source claims from your own interpretation before asking AI to help.
- Invite useful disagreementAsk for a competing interpretation and the assumptions behind it. Return to the sources to test which claims hold up.
- Defend your reasoningChoose your recommendation, acknowledge uncertainty and rehearse the questions a colleague could ask. Repair any gaps in your understanding.
WHAT YOU COULD CARRY FORWARD
A briefing with an evidence trail
A recommendation, its supporting sources, a considered alternative and an explanation of the judgment you exercised.
Fluency develops sensemaking, useful disagreement and verification so you can stand behind AI-assisted work.

I want to prepare for a difficult conversation
You have an interview, a project discussion or a conversation where your message needs to be clear. You want practice that strengthens your own ability to respond.
- Set the human goalName what the other person needs to understand and what you need to learn from them. Define the context without disclosing sensitive personal information.
- Rehearse different responsesUse AI to surface possible questions and competing perspectives. Respond in your own words, then examine where your explanation becomes unclear.
- Reflect and adaptChoose what to change and practice again. Keep a few useful prompts for yourself while leaving room to listen and respond to the actual person.
WHAT YOU COULD CARRY FORWARD
A conversation preparation note
Your purpose, the perspectives to consider, questions worth asking and a reflection on how your communication improved through practice.
Fluency uses AI-supported rehearsal to develop human communication and judgment across work, learning and new opportunities.

When is Human × AI Fluency a useful fit?
It is a useful fit when you want a consistent approach to recurring projects, communication or decisions. You may already use AI but want to understand why an approach works, what to verify and how to explain your own contribution.
How does Fluency differ from Literacy and AI Agility?
Literacy establishes understanding and purposeful AI interactions. Fluency develops a repeatable personal practice across tasks. AI Agility builds reusable Human × AI collaboration systems. Choose the capability you need next; the pathway is not a required sequence.
What should I bring to the exercises?
Choose a meaningful recurring task, source material you can appropriately use and an example of a result you would consider useful. Be ready to compare attempts, explain your reasoning and revise your approach.
What does the program include?
Human × AI Fluency includes 15 main modules and approximately 8 hours of learning, with four section knowledge checks. Every module includes video, an applied exercise with Virgil and an interactive area to create and reflect. Community membership is not included with this individual program; it is included with Intermediate Programs.
