The document provides steps for getting started with using AI to assist with data science work. It outlines 5 steps: 1) Find a large language model (LLM) that can be installed in your integrated development environment (IDE), 2) Install the extension or library for the LLM in your IDE, 3) Try a simple "hello world" type command to test it, 4) Evaluate the code suggested by the AI, and 5) Continue practicing and exploring with the help of the AI. The document uses setting up Jupyter notebooks with the OpenAI LLM as a case study and example to walk through the steps.
