This path is for home and work, not a lab. Parts cover scams and deepfakes, school and work honesty, health and money limits, kids on a shared device, and which job skills still matter. Start with the first part on this page.
- 1 Scams, deepfakes, and too-good offers Treat a familiar voice as untrusted until a known number picks up. Call back on a number you already own. Gift cards, crypto, and new payment handles on a 20-minute deadline are a stop.
- 2 School, work honesty, and citations You own the file you submit. Open every citation yourself, drop 404 DOIs, and follow the honesty rule your school or workplace already wrote.
- 3 Health, legal, and money: hard limits Chat cannot be your doctor, lawyer, or adviser. Prep questions and plain drafts; never paste full records or treat a reply as a signed plan.
- 4 Kids, family, and shared devices A shared ChatGPT login mixes homework with work files and Memory. Use separate accounts, skip under-13 profiles, and keep household rules a parent can see in the room.
- 5 Jobs and AI: skills that still matter AI shifts tasks inside jobs; titles lag. Keep five skills: the question, the number check, the conversation, taste, and the stop. Models draft; you own the closed book.
