AI in your life · Self-check

What this is about

“Am I missing out on AI right now?” — almost everyone is asking themselves that question at the moment. This check turns it into an organised view: across five areas of life, it shows where AI could already give you time and clarity today, and where your next simple step lies. At the end you get an overall picture, a heatmap for each area and your personal levers — instantly, no waiting.

Purpose

An orientation, not a report card. A first, honest look at where AI can make your life easier.

Duration

About 10 minutes. 30 statements, each on a scale from 1 to 5.

Who it's for

For you personally — whether you use AI daily or have only heard about it so far. There are no wrong answers.

What this test deliberately can't do — and that's intentional. It measures how you see yourself, not how things objectively are. It doesn't sell you anything and it doesn't judge you — it sorts. What you make of it is up to you. At the end we show you one possible next step; nothing more.

How to answer

You rate each statement on a scale from 1 (doesn't apply at all) to 5 (fully applies). If you can't judge it, that's a 1 — and that's an honest answer too.

1Doesn't apply at all / I don't know
2Mostly doesn't apply
3Partly applies
4Mostly applies
5Fully applies / well established

Statements marked reverse-scored are deliberately worded the other way round: there, strong agreement means untapped potential. They are converted automatically in the assessment (6 − value) — no need to think backwards, just answer honestly.

Two quick clicks before you start

Optional — but it helps put your assessment and the right next step into context.

Tools & Access

The question behind it: Do you even have solid ground for AI use to stand on?
I have at least one AI tool (e.g. ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini) set up and could use it right now.
I use AI not just on my computer but also on my phone when it helps on the go.
I have deliberately compared two AI tools at least once to find the right one for me.
I only ever try AI when someone shows it to me — I never open one on my own.reverse-scored
For things that matter to me, I use a deliberately chosen (possibly paid) AI option instead of “whatever happens to be open”.
I'd know where to look or who to ask if I wanted to set up a new AI tool.

Everyday Life & Time

The question behind it: Is AI already giving you time back — or is it still just a toy?
There is at least one recurring task in my everyday life (writing, planning, research) that I regularly get done with AI.
Before I do something laboriously by hand, I now briefly ask myself: could AI do this faster?
I have already handled paperwork (a letter, application, appeal, form) with the help of AI.
In the end I'd rather do things myself — fixing up AI results costs me more time than it saves.reverse-scored
For recurring occasions (emails, shopping, travel planning) I have set routines or saved instructions.
AI gives me noticeable time back in a normal week — and I could name where.

Learning & Understanding

The question behind it: Is AI a learning partner for you — or just an answer machine?
When I don't understand something (a contract, official letter, diagnosis, technology), I have AI explain it to me in plain language.
I use AI to learn new things (a language, a skill, a topic) — not just to get finished results.
I ask follow-up questions until I have really understood an AI answer, instead of just taking it as given.
Honestly, I often don't even know what I would ask an AI in the first place.reverse-scored
I have already used AI to prepare an important decision (a comparison, pros and cons, questions for the expert appointment).
People around me have already learned something useful about AI through me.

Judgement & Safety

The question behind it: Do you know what you can entrust to AI — and what you can't?
I know which details I'd better not entrust to an AI (e.g. health data, passwords, other people's names).
I double-check important AI answers before acting on them (a second source, an expert, common sense).
I recognise typical signs that an image, video or text might be AI-generated.
I usually take what the AI says as it comes — I lack the time or knowledge to check it.reverse-scored
I could explain to a child or an older relative what to watch out for with AI.
I know in broad terms what happens to my inputs (storage, training, settings).

Future & Career

The question behind it: Are you prepared — or is the feeling of missing out your only companion?
I have a rough idea of how AI will change my job or my environment over the next few years.
In recent months I have deliberately built a skill that makes me more resilient in the AI era.
When people around me talk about AI, I can join the conversation and put things into perspective instead of just listening.
The feeling of missing out on something important with AI keeps coming back — without me knowing where to start.reverse-scored
I have looked concretely at which of my tasks AI could take over — and which deliberately stay with me.
I have named a next learning step (a course, a project, an experiment) instead of “someday”.

Not all statements answered yet — in the demo, missing ones count as “I don't know” (1).

What this self-check deliberately can't do

These limits aren't a weakness to be optimised away — they're what keeps the test honest:

  • Self-assessment is not an outside view. The test measures how you see yourself — and even that is valuable, because it sorts things out.
  • It tells you what, not how. You get the first step for each area. How it fits into your everyday life, only you know — or you work it out together with a companion.
  • No judgement about you. The check is an anchor for reflection, never a verdict. A low number only means: something is still waiting there for you.
