How AI-Brained Are You, Actually?
ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini... can't tell if you should ask AI or just text a friend? Six levels of AI dependence — from full analog to full cyborg.
How Do You Actually Use AI? | 32 Types

AI lives in the toolbox alongside everything else. You take it out when it's the right tool for the job and put it back when it isn't. No attachment, no dependency, no philosophical relationship with it. If a problem is faster to solve yourself, you solve it yourself. If AI is faster, you use AI. The selection criterion is pure utility, and you switch between options without friction. Clean. Practical. Exactly how tools should work.
You handle relationship situations by reading them and acting — not by running them through an AI consultation first. Your instincts are sharp and you trust them. Quiet, but decisive when it matters.
Code debugging, technical research, comparing methodologies — these are the actual use cases where AI earns its place with you. Everything functional, nothing extraneous. You don't chat with tools.
Free tier handles most needs. Paid tier only when something specific demands it — and once that need passes, the subscription passes with it. No emotional friction, no second-guessing.
