An AI assistant that can organize your plans and handle tasks sounds pretty helpful. But when it asks for access to your email, calendar, or credit card, how much permission should you give it?
This week on Mr. Fred’s Tech Talks, we explore AI assistants and agents in plain English. What’s the difference between suggesting something and actually doing it?
How can an assistant work inside an account without seeing your password? And why doesn’t a hidden password mean your information is out of reach?
With familiar examples and a little humor, Mr. Fred explains how to put these tools to work while keeping yourself involved in the decisions that matter. No computer science degree required.
