AI Essentials

This collection of beginner-friendly, jargon-free guides and video walkthroughs is designed to help small business owners get started with AI. These resources were created as a result of the AI Opportunity For Small Business report, which we produced in partnership with BT.

From easy-to-understand introductions like “What Even Is AI?” to practical advice on choosing the right tools, saving time on everyday tasks and writing effective prompts, these resources make AI approachable and genuinely useful.

You will also discover tips for staying authentic while using AI, real-world examples of tools you may already use and insights into what AI cannot do and why that can actually be a good thing.
