The three dimensions

One question each. No easy answers.

Each axis is scored on its own, from −100 to +100. What you expect AI to do, how dangerous you think it is, and what you want governments to do about it are separate questions.

XEconomic impact

Will AI mostly work alongside people, or instead of them?

−100Human complementarity+100Human replacement
YExistential risk

Is AI a risk we can manage, or a threat to humanity's survival?

−100Manageable risk+100Existential threat
ZRegulatory intervention

How much should governments intervene in AI development?

−100Minimal regulation+100Strong regulation

How it works

Five minutes to a point in space.

  1. 01

    Answer thirty statements

    One at a time, from strongly disagree to strongly agree. You can go back and change any answer, and your progress is saved on your device.

  2. 02

    Get your coordinates

    Ten statements feed each axis, half of them reverse-worded. Your three scores place you inside a cube, alongside an archetype that sums them up.

  3. 03

    Compare and share

    Rotate the compass, open any thinker to read the evidence behind their position, and share a link, an image or a short video of your result.

On the chart

20 people who argue about this for a living.

Each placement is built from what the person has said on the record, with every quotation checked against its source and every coordinate given a confidence level. Thinker placements are evidence-based editorial interpretations of public statements. They are not self-reported, and none of these people took the questionnaire.

Read the evidence

Find your point. Then see who’s standing next to you.

This result describes attitudes you reported today. It is not a scientifically validated psychological measure, and it says nothing about who is right.
