## Star Forge > Mindful AI mode Just as the Star Forge is a legendary source of power and innovation in the Star Wars universe, Artificial Intelligence tools are the cutting-edge instruments for modern learners. Imagine harnessing AI in your learning journey, forging new paths of understanding and creating knowledge with precision. > Let's discover the new subject section you will find from now on in the next subjects: ### AI-Powered Learning Techniques As you dive into this quest, using AI tools can significantly boost your learning. A key skill is mastering how to `Speak AI`, which means knowing how to ask AI the right questions to get the answers you need while learning. You must understand these few easy concepts first: > **A prompt** is a question or instruction given to a generative AI to produce a specific response or action, helping users learn or achieve a desired outcome. > **Generative AI** is an exciting tool that helps you learn by generating new content, like texts and images, based on existing examples and your prompts, making the learning process more dynamic and engaging! **Suggested Free Generative AI Tools:** - [ChatGPT](https://chatgpt.com/) - [Phind](https://www.phind.com/) - [Gemini](https://gemini.google.com/) For example: ### Metaphor Explanation Technique This type of prompt encourages the AI to explain complex concepts using simple metaphors, making them easier to understand. **`Prompt example`** - "Explain what a variable is in JavaScript using a metaphor." **How to Use It with ChatGPT:** 1. **Open your favorite Generative AI (ChatGPT as an example)**: Go to [ChatGPT](https://chatgpt.com/) and start a new chat session. 2. **Enter the Prompt**: Type or paste your prompt into the chat. For example, "Explain what a variable is in JavaScript using a metaphor." 3. **Review the Response**: ChatGPT will provide a metaphorical explanation. For instance: > "A variable in JavaScript is like a labeled jar that you can store items in. You can put different things into the jar (like numbers, strings, or objects) and label it with a name so you can easily find and use the contents later. For example: `let myJar = 'Cookies';`." 4. **Ask Follow-Up Questions and compare results with your peers**: If you need further clarification or more metaphors, you can ask follow-up questions! --- Similar to this technique , we will discover in each incoming exercise, a new way to learn with AI , helping you achieve your goals with your peers > Remember that we use AI as a tool to understand deeply the notions, and not to get ready answers! So collaborate with your peers ;) ### task Paste the following code in the code editor, and submit it : ```js let beginning = "I am ready to start using AI and peer learning to learn JavaScript!"; ``` Curious about what it means? Let's discover it in the next exercise!
