Learning AI: Using Images
This is lesson 6 from the free online course, 💟 2 Weeks AI
A beginner-friendly guide for AI newcomers, and a power-up for AI experts. Visit
AI isn’t just for text and voice — it can also analyze images and provide insights, making it a powerful tool for a wide range of tasks. While you may not use this feature every day, when you do, it’s pretty impressive!
To add or upload an image, simply tap the plus + icon next to the message box. The options are similar across desktop and mobile AI tools.
When you hit the plus you’ll see a couple of options:
- 📷 Camera — Snap a picture with your camera
- 🖼 Photos — Choose an image from your phone’s gallery
- 🗂 Files — Upload any file (we’ll cover this in a later lesson)
Once uploaded, you can ask AI to describe, analyze, or even edit the image.
When To Use Images With AI
AI can analyze images almost as well as you can — and in some cases, even better. If an image contains text, AI can read it. If it includes people or a specific context, AI will try to understand the situation. You can then use this information as a foundation for more insightful questions.
