AI Literacy For All is a student-led initiative designed to help people better understand and navigate artificial intelligence in everyday life. Through accessible, hands-on workshops, participants learn how AI works, how to use common AI tools effectively, and how to recognize risks such as misinformation, scams, privacy concerns, and overreliance on automated systems. The project's goal is to make AI education practical, approachable, and empowering for learners of all backgrounds.
