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

You've figured out empirically which domains AI actually works in, and you stay inside those boundaries. Document drafts, information summaries, email templates — confirmed use cases only. For anything with real stakes, you decide yourself. You understand AI's limits, which means you don't over-trust it — but you don't undersell it either. "I tested it first" describes your entire relationship with AI, and that approach is quietly very effective.
In relationships, you believe in what people actually do, not what they say. AI advice on relationship dynamics doesn't interest you much — direct conversation is just more effective. Gift research? Sure, occasionally. Life decisions? Never.
Before rolling out any AI tool for your team, you test it yourself, set the standard, and define the scope. When someone proposes a new AI integration, your first question is "what's the evidence?" — and that rigor protects everyone.
Unused AI subscriptions get cancelled immediately — no hesitation, no nostalgia. You likely track recurring costs in a spreadsheet, and the audit happens on schedule. Disciplined without making it a personality.
