AI Foundations and Applications: What It Is and How It’s Already Being Used

In this episode, Jon Garner-Richardson breaks down the foundations of AI — what it is, how it works, and how it’s already being used by educators, young people, schools, and even parents.

Using his “AI as a librarian” analogy, Jon explains key terms like LLMs, GPT, AGI, and agents in a way that’s accessible and practical. He also explores real-world applications in teaching, learning, revision, and data-informed decision-making — all while reinforcing the importance of human judgement and ethical reflection.

Whether you’re guiding young people, shaping policy, or just trying to understand the basics, this episode offers clarity and confidence in a fast-moving digital world.
