Are You Ready to Build With AI? Score Yourself Honestly

"Where do I even start?" is the question I hear most from smart, busy people about AI. Not "is it useful" — everyone suspects it is. They just don't know their starting point.

The AI Readiness Self-Assessment answers that in about ten minutes. It's not a quiz that tells you you're a "Curious Explorer" and sells you a course. It's a working inventory of how you handle the things AI actually changes: how you research, how you write, how you plan, how you verify what you're told.

What you'll learn about yourself

The assessment scores you across the skills that matter for building with AI — from framing a clear request to checking output you can't personally verify. For each area, your score points you at what to do next: which habits to build first, which chapters of Creating with Claude to skip because you're past them, and which ones to slow down on.

Most people discover two things. First, they're further along than they thought — if you can delegate work to a person clearly, most of the skill transfers. Second, their weak spot is almost never prompting. It's verification: knowing when to trust the output. That's learnable, and knowing it's your gap is most of the fix.
