What are technical fluency with ai tools?

Technical fluency with AI tools is like knowing how to use your favorite toy, but instead of just playing with it, you know exactly what each button does and how to make it do cool new things.

Imagine you have a robot friend that can draw pictures. At first, you just press buttons to make it draw happy faces or cars. That's like using the tool. But technical fluency means you understand how the robot thinks, maybe you know how to change its colors, make it draw faster, or even teach it new shapes. You're not just playing with the robot; you're talking to it in a language it understands.
