You've learned how AI accesses current information through web search. But that's just one example of AI using "tools."
Modern AI can do much more than generate text - it can actually perform actions and use other software to help you.

What tasks beyond writing would you want AI to help you with?
Think of AI tools like a digital Swiss Army knife. Each tool gives AI a new superpower - calculating numbers, browsing websites, or even running code.
Without tools, AI is limited to what it learned during training. With tools, it becomes an active problem-solver.

Can you imagine AI helping with spreadsheet calculations or data analysis?
Here's how it works: When AI realizes it needs to perform a specific task (like math), it calls the right tool.
The tool does the work, sends results back to AI, and then AI uses those results in its response to you.
It's like having a personal assistant who can instantly access any app you need!

Have you ever needed to switch between multiple apps to complete one task?
Popular AI tools include calculators for precise math, web browsers for detailed research, and code interpreters for data analysis.
There are also tools for sending emails, scheduling meetings, and even controlling other business software through APIs.
