Reasoning models are trained and tuned for tasks requiring, well, reasoning.  Not helpful, I know.  

Sometimes it is hard to define these without using the same words…

These are like the Toyota Camrys of AI models - pretty good at a broad range of things.  

If you use any of the popular AI chatbot tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Copilot, Perplexity, etc., you’ve probably come across a wide variety of models to choose from.  

AI tools and solutions are changing education at all levels.  

Prompt engineering is arguably the most important skill in this era of AI tools.

If you’ve used image generation within ChatGPT before, it’s probably been hit or miss.  It still is, but it’s getting better.  

One of the things that you might like about Google Labs is that they just play around with things, and sometimes what they come up with really works.  

You get a really good prompt for ChatGPT.  You make sure that you tell it to make the output sound like a human wrote it.  You read it over, and it sounds exactly like you.  

Google’s latest text-to-image tool is called Imagen3 (for now, the way that these tools are advancing, they’ll probably have a new version out by the time you read this).
