About this tool

Six questions, no verdicts. This tool helps you think through the trade-offs of using AI for a specific task. The “answers” are considerations, not scores; you know your situation better than we do.

When we say “AI” here, we mean generative AI: tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini that produce text, images, or code. Machine learning in controlled settings (medical imaging, weather prediction, structural engineering) is a different discussion with different trade-offs.
