Think Like AI
Experience how AI thinks. These interactive tools build the intuition that articles can't.
The Big Picture
When you chat with AI, here's what's actually happening. Hover over the hotspots to learn more.
Your Device
When you type a question, it's converted into data packets and sent over the internet. Your device does almost none of the AI processing.
Local Network / ISP
Your Internet Service Provider routes your request through their network to the AI company's servers. This hop adds a few milliseconds of latency.
The Data Center
This is the 'cloud.' Massive warehouses filled with specialized computers (GPUs) that run the AI models. Companies like OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic operate these.
Distributed Neural Network
Your question gets processed across thousands of GPUs simultaneously. The neural network breaks your text into tokens, processes them through billions of parameters, and generates a response one token at a time.
Inside the Data Center
That glowing neural network is where the magic happens. Your question gets broken into tokens, processed through the model's context window, shaped by temperature settings, and matched against vector embeddings. Explore each concept below.
Token Visualizer
Watch AI pick words in real-time. See how probability determines every word in a sentence.
Prompt Cookbook
Copy-paste prompt templates that actually work. Before & after examples for coding, writing, and more.
Temperature Playground
See how 'creativity' settings change AI output. Same prompt, wildly different results.
Context Window Limits
What happens when AI runs out of memory? Watch it forget in real-time.
Meaning Matcher
Keywords vs Vectors: See how AI understands meaning, not just spelling. The tech behind 'Chat with PDF'.

Why "Think Like AI"?
Most people treat AI like magic. But once you see the mechanics (probability distributions, token limits, temperature settings, vector embeddings) you stop being surprised by its quirks and start knowing how to get what you want.
