Prerequisites
To maximize your learning experience with Gen AI tools, you’ll need a paid account. Throughout this series, NSPA recommends ChatGPT but you can do well with a Google Gemini Pro, Claude Pro, or MS Copilot (paid) account. Use free versions of chatbots at your own risk, and avoid sharing confidential, sensitive, private (PII, FERPA,HIPAA) data via consumer Gen AI chatbots, especially free ones. Get a premium plan that offers enhanced data protection features.
