What is AI?

Artificial Intelligence, or AI, is computer software that can think and learn similar to how humans do. Think of it like having a very smart assistant that can understand what you want and help you accomplish tasks.

Simple analogy: If a regular computer is like a calculator (it only does what you tell it), AI is like a helpful friend who can understand your questions, learn from examples, and come up with creative solutions.

AI doesn't have feelings or consciousness - it's a very sophisticated tool that uses patterns it learned from millions of examples to help you.

When you type a command like "gen: write a poem about cats," the AI breaks it down:

• gen: means "generate" - create something new
• "write a poem" - it understands you want a poem
• "about cats" - the topic should be cats

The AI has been trained on millions of texts, poems, and examples. It uses this knowledge to create something new that matches what you asked for. Think of it like a chef who has studied thousands of recipes and can now create new dishes based on your preferences.

Imagine you're writing an email, and you can't think of the right word. Or you need to explain a complex concept but don't know where to start. That' where AI helps!

AI can help you:

• Generate new content when you're stuck
• Explain complicated topics in simple terms
• Fix errors in your writing or code
• Translate between languages
• Summarize long documents
• Answer questions based on context

Instead of searching Google or asking a colleague, you can get instant help right where you're typing. It's like having a research assistant, editor, and tutor all in one - available 24/7.

Most AI tools send your text to the internet, which means:

• Your data travels over the internet
• You need an internet connection
• Responses can be slow
• You might worry about privacy

Typilot is different:

• 100% Local: Everything runs on your computer - your data never leaves your machine
• Fast: No waiting for internet requests - responses are instant
• Private: Your texts, prompts, and responses stay on your device
• Works Offline: Once set up, you don't need internet to use AI

Think of it like the difference between streaming music (needs internet) vs. playing music from your hard drive (works offline). Typilot is like having your music collection - it's yours, private, and always available.
