We are looking to see how our community uses AI in everyday tasks. This is not only related to content creation on hive but to your work and your behavior in everyday life. We have here established 7 categories and we would like you to rate which category fits your proficiency with Ai best. Feel free to complete your answer with remarks and precisions.
Which of these best describes your current technical proficiency with AI-assisted tools?
| Level | Persona | "I can..." |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | The Purist | I avoid AI entirely and don't intend to use it anytime soon |
| 2 | The Observer | I've heard about AI and seen others use it, but I haven't really typed anything into a prompt yet |
| 3 | The Explorer | I use AI like a search engine. I ask it basic questions or use it for simple tasks like 'Summarize this' or 'Write an email to my boss. |
| 4 | The Pilot | I know how to 'talk' to the AI. I use techniques like indirect prompting or Role-Prompting (e.g., 'Act as a marketing expert...') to get much better results. |
| 5 | The Architect | I design structured environments. I use Custom Instructions, Projects, or Knowledge Files so the AI always operates within my specific logic. |
| 6 | The Operator | I deploy Autonomous Agents. I set a goal and let the AI perform multi-step tasks, browse the web, or use tools on its own |
| 7 | The Engineer | I work with Code & APIs. I write scripts, fine-tune models, or build my own software that integrates AI logic from the ground up. |

I’m in the pilot level. 👩✈️

What a superb mission! Those categories must have taken ages to develop. Except help with that kind of stuff is so much easier today (😉).
I'm an Explorer on the Pilot cusp with plans for a new semi-retired Architect project. And loving it. 😍
I feel like I am 3.5, in between 3 and 4. Lots of room for improvement. Hehe!
I guess this is my level:
I think I’d be somewhere between a 4 and a 5. I started out using AI just to clear up doubts and ask questions, but now I’m using it more for structures, programs, apps, and things like that—more complex and better ones.
3 only use it for graphics that i can't make with my camera
I think I'm somewhere on stage between explorer and pilot

Well I evolved quite fast, I was just a explorer using it to talk and discuss about questions in life in general, including searching products for multiple parts of my life and now I am a code and api adict lol
