Lesson 8 of 13
Who can use AI?
Show on a big screenAn AI helper is an app you ask for help. It can save time. But not every family can use one.
Step 1 of 4
- Ten made-up families. Each box shows the monthly money a family has for a helper. It also shows home internet.
- A helper costs ₹200 a month. Only families with ₹200 or more can pay. That is 4.
- The helper also needs internet. One of the four has none. That leaves 3.
- So 3 of 10 families can use it. The other 7 are left out.
The rule
AI access is who can use AI at all. A gap opens when some people cannot.
- AI access — whether a person can use AI at all.
- Gap — a difference in who can use AI. Some people can. Others cannot.
A lower price lets more families use a helper.
| What blocks a person | One way to help |
|---|---|
| A price that is too high | A lower price, or a free version |
| No internet at home | A helper that works without it |
| A language it does not know | A helper that knows more languages |
| Nobody showed how to use it | Teaching in school |
The lab uses made-up families. Real families differ. The idea is the same.
Using AI well
Having a helper is not the same as using it well. A helper that gives homework answers can leave you with nothing learned.
Try each question yourself first. Ask a teacher or parent how to use a helper for school.
Watch out!
Being left out does not make a person less clever. The blocks are price, internet, language and teaching.
Slide the price. Switch the internet on or off.
