Straight talk about AI, at your own pace

Ask a computer anything. Keep your wits about you.

Asking Stuff is a deck of cards, a large-print guide and this little app. Each card gives you the words to type into the AI app on your phone: a dinner idea, a garden question, a note to a friend. No computer degree required.

How it works

  1. Have your AI app ready. It is a separate app on your phone. This page does not listen or answer.
  2. Pick one card. Just one. There is no test and no wrong order.
  3. Send the words to your AI app. Tap "Send to my AI app" and pick it from the list. Or press and hold the gray box.
  4. Read its answer, then check. Every card ends with a safety step. Do not skip it.

Six suits, one for each part of life

Fill-in helpers for every day

The kitchen, the garden, the doctor's office, the mail, the grandkids, trips and outings, and your phone itself. Tap a few choices and the words are written for you. It works fine outdoors too: turn on bright sun mode and the text gets bolder.

The one rule to remember

If anyone, or anything, asks you to hurry, keep a secret, or pay with gift cards: stop. Real banks, real offices and real family will wait while you check.

The printed deck and guide

38 large-print cards in a box, with a 16-page guide that lies flat on the table. They are on the way. Until then, everything is here, free.
