AI course alternative

Iro AI vs. passive video courses.

For most people, an app like Iro AI beats a video course for learning to use AI — because you learn AI by doing, not watching. Video courses explain concepts well, but active practice builds judgment and retention. Iro focuses on short daily exercises, real prompt practice with feedback, and gamified repetition, so the skills actually stick.
