How Non-Tech People in Nepal Can Start Learning AI

Many people in Nepal ask me: *"Rabin sir, I don't know computer programming. Can I still learn and use AI?"* The answer is a resounding **YES**. In fact, modern generative AI tools are designed to be controlled using natural language — whether in English or clear Nepali transliteration. ### Step 1: Start with Everyday Conversations You do not need to install complex software. Start with accessible tools: - **ChatGPT** (Free web & mobile app) - **Google Gemini** (Integrated with Google search and tools) - **Claude AI** (Excellent for long document reading) Treat the AI like a highly capable assistant who needs clear context. ### Step 2: Master the 4 Components of a Good Prompt In my workshops, I teach the **R-C-T-O Framework**: - **Role**: Tell the AI who it should act as (e.g., "Act as an expert English teacher in Nepal"). - **Context**: Give background info (e.g., "I am writing an email to a bank manager regarding a loan inquiry"). - **Task**: State clearly what you need (e.g., "Draft a polite 3-paragraph email in formal English"). - **Output Format**: Specify the style (e.g., "Use bullet points for required documents"). ### Step 3: Verify and Edit Never copy AI output blindly. Always read, verify facts, and adjust to match your personal tone.
