Where is AI being used around the house and work?
AI is used in many parts of everyday life, often in ways we don’t even notice. Around the house, AI appears in smart home devices like Alexa or Google Home, which respond to voice commands to play music, set timers, or control lights. Streaming services like Netflix or Spotify use AI to suggest movies or songs based on your preferences. At work, especially as a first-grade teacher, AI tools like ChatGPT can help generate lesson ideas, write parent letters, or create engaging classroom activities quickly, helping to save time and offering inspiration when planning.
Describe an example of when you used or witnessed someone else use AI (Alexa, Siri, etc.):
One clear example is when I use Siri while driving. I often ask Siri to send a text, make a call, or get directions, all hands-free, which keeps me safe and focused on the road.
How, if at all, has this impacted your life?
AI has made many tasks faster and more convenient. As a teacher, using tools like ChatGPT has cut down on planning time and allowed me to focus more on working directly with students. At home, AI helps simplify my routine, whether it’s getting reminders from Siri or having Alexa help with timers during cooking. AI has also helped me to reorganize my lifestyle such as planning workouts, organizing meals and generating shopping lists.
