Abstract
-
The article addresses the growing need for AI literacy in light of artificial intelligence’s expanding influence on workers and citizens. It reviews and compares existing definitions of algorithmic literacy, AI literacy, and generative AI literacy across fields such as media studies, human–computer interaction, technology, and education. The authors analyze how these disciplines conceptualize AI literacy differently, revealing conceptual ambiguities and overlaps. Moving beyond narrow skill-based approaches, the paper proposes a definition of responsible generative AI literacy that extends beyond effective prompting. It frames AI literacy as a broader ethical, critical, and socially aware competence required for responsible engagement with AI systems.
