Overview
Using AI well is a skill. This course teaches it as four habits.
AI Fluency: Framework & Foundations is a four-hour Academy course that Anthropic says suits everyone. It teaches how generative AI works and four competencies: Delegation, Description, Discernment and Diligence. It has fourteen lessons and one quiz, and a separate final assessment earns the badge.

From how generative AI works
to a way of working you can defend.
We design this course ourselves. Anthropic issues the credential, and LUNARTECH is independent of Anthropic.
Using AI well is a skill, not a switch. You see why fluency matters, meet the four competencies of Delegation, Description, Discernment and Diligence, and learn how they fit together in real work.
- What AI fluency means
- Why it matters at work
- The four Ds at a glance
- How the four fit together
- Where you start
You build A self-assessment that rates your current habits against each of the four Ds.
Good judgment needs a working model of the tool. You learn how generative AI produces output, what it does well, and the limits that make some tasks risky.
- How a language model produces text
- What training gives and does not give
- Capabilities that are real
- Limitations and failure patterns
- Matching tasks to strengths
You build A table of ten tasks sorted by where AI is strong, shaky or unsuitable.
Delegation starts before the first prompt. You decide which parts of a project belong with you, which with AI and which with both, including how to plan work around that split.
- Reasons to delegate and reasons not to
- Splitting a task into parts
- Human, AI and shared roles
- Delegation in project planning
- Reviewing a delegation decision
You build A project plan that marks each step as human, AI or shared, with reasons.
AI can only meet what you describe. You communicate the product you want, the process to follow and the performance expected, so that the first answer lands closer to useful.
- Describing the product
- Describing the process
- Describing the performance you expect
- Context, audience and constraints
- Seeing which description failed
You build A three-part description for one real task, tested against a vague version.
Description becomes practical through technique. You apply clear instructions, examples, step-by-step requests and role-setting, and see how each one changes what you get.
- Clear and specific instructions
- Giving examples
- Asking for reasoning in steps
- Setting roles and formats
- Choosing a technique for a task
You build A prompt toolkit with one tested example per technique.
Fluent output is not always correct output. You evaluate results and behavior with a critical eye, check facts and reasoning, and decide what needs rework.
- Judging accuracy
- Judging reasoning and logic
- Noticing confident errors
- Judging fit for purpose
- Deciding what to rework
You build An evaluation of one AI output, with each issue found and its fix.
Rarely does one prompt finish the job. You cycle between describing what you want and judging what you got, using what you find to improve the next description.
- Why one pass is rarely enough
- Turning a critique into a better description
- Knowing when to stop iterating
- Tracking what changed between rounds
- Avoiding endless loops
You build A documented three-round loop that takes one deliverable from weak to usable.
You are accountable for what you deliver. You practice diligence in how work is created, how its use of AI is disclosed, and how it is deployed and relied on.
- Creation diligence: choosing tools and data
- Transparency: telling others about AI use
- Deployment diligence: what you stand behind
- Privacy and confidentiality
- Owning mistakes and fixing them
You build An AI-use statement for one piece of work, covering creation, transparency and deployment.

Reviews
Real stories from the community.
LUNARTECH Academy has been the most empowering learning experience of my life, giving me a clear, structured path from the absolute basics to building real-world AI systems with confidence.
Your page is fantastic. As a bachelor’s student in Data Science now accepted for a master’s at UConn, your work has been a real source of motivation.
The programme’s clear, bite-sized content and practical projects dramatically improved my speed from fuzzy idea to MVP and my ability to communicate AI value. I followed the system, and it works.
I really appreciate your teaching style and the way you break down complex topics. It has been incredibly helpful.
After years working mainly with R for econometrics, I found your Python machine learning course a refreshing and engaging way to learn Python.
As a Data Science graduate, I want to thank you for the effort you put into making videos to support growing data scientists.
I’ve been following your work since taking your machine learning course, and I’m impressed by your practical approach to applying AI.
