Why this book works (and why most people struggle)
ChatGPT is powerful, but it only works as well as the questions you ask. Most people type vague instructions and then wonder why the answers are confusing or wrong. This book shows you how to ask clear, focused questions—so you get specific, useful answers you can actually use.

FAQ: ChatGPT for Beginners, Seniors & Non-Technical People
Do I need to be good with computers to use ChatGPT?
No. If you can explain something in plain English, you can use ChatGPT. These books show you exactly what to type (or say) so you can get useful answers quickly.
Which book should I start with: QuickStart or Full Guide?
Start with the QuickStart if you want the shortest, simplest first step. Choose the Full Guide if you want more real-life examples—especially letters, forms, paperwork, and everyday tasks.
