Categories and Use Cases

August 2025 Edition

Looking for clarity in the fast-growing world of AI tools? This non-tech book uses an intuitive city metaphor to introduce the main AI tools across multiple categories, showing you how they work and what you can achieve with them.

What's inside:

• 50 tools across 9 categories from foundational to cutting-edge

• 144 practical use cases spanning business, creativity, research, and automation

• 90 hands-on prompts you can try immediately

Navigate from foundational conversational AI through creative design and media tools, smart automation platforms, no-code builders, to cutting-edge autonomous systems, each with practical examples you can implement immediately (see full tools list).

“There's no ‘correct’ path through AI. You might jump straight to advanced tools, try everything at once, or explore one district at a time. Simply follow what works for you.”
