Season 1 Episode 3

We recently chatted with Trenton Jeffers, a senior at Prairie View A&M University, who shared how AI shifted his approach to studying.
In his first year, he relied on basic tools like YouTube and calculators, but AI wasn’t even in the picture then. Fast forward to now, and AI has become his instant tutor—answering questions at any hour, helping him understand complex topics, and even aiding in building a gaming PC! What stood out? The way AI offers immediate, personalized support without replacing the critical thinking he values. Trenton is cautious about overreliance (using AI as a guide, not a crutch) and recognizes its dual edge: great for learning, but a temptation to cheat. This honesty helps us see that AI isn’t about cheating; it’s about finding new ways to learn smarter!
