Explanation

An AI website helper works from your written commands. What can it do? It can turn simple commands into a design, save learning time, suggest ideas, and change the design quickly after feedback. What can it not do alone? It cannot know your real aims, it cannot check facts, it cannot protect privacy, and it cannot make choices for you. A simple site can be drafted quickly, but a good site still needs your ideas, checking and care. Remember Week 6: AI learns from examples and can be wrong, so its text may be mistaken or may sound copied. You check the facts and name your sources, as you learned in Week 5. Accounts and sign-ups are for a grown-up or teacher; you never sign up yourself in a lesson.

Worked examples
A class asks an AI helper, with the teacher present, for a draft of a garden club page. The helper writes: “Our garden grows every plant in the world.” The class laughs, checks, and changes the sentence to what is true for their garden. The tool drafts; the students check.
no sign-up alonea grown-up decides
Salma wants to sign up for an AI tool on her own with her e-mail. Her teacher says: no. Accounts are for a grown-up or the school. A lesson never asks a student to sign up, and no personal data is shared.
Class activity

Draw a two-column table “You decide / The AI drafts” and add two more lines to each column from your own ideas. Then write one sentence that tells why you must check facts that an AI writes.
