The rapid integration of Generative AI, particularly LLM-based chatbots like ChatGPT, has underscored a critical need for accessible educational tools to foster public AI literacy. To address this challenge, researchers have introduced a game-based, interactive approach: a jigsaw puzzle designed to demystify complex AI concepts through hands-on engagement.
The completed image of the puzzle is a comic-based infographic that illustrates the inner workings, capabilities, limitations, and societal implications of these technologies. Each individual comic sketch within the puzzle also functions as a standalone informational card, offering focused explanations on specific facets of AI design, usage, and broader impact. This granular approach allows users to digest complex information in manageable segments.
The visual content was developed through a live collaborative process involving a professional illustrator and a multidisciplinary group of both experts and laypeople. By blending structured technical knowledge with informal reflections shared during the design sessions, the puzzle serves as a holistic educational resource. By integrating physical assembly, visual storytelling, and collaborative interaction, the tool provides a playful yet profound method for exploring the "perks and perils" of AI systems in informal learning environments.
