Are you AI Fluent?—Your Shot of Fearless Culture #412
Where change agents find their weekly dose of culture insights and exercises, one topic at a time.
Do you consider yourself AI fluent?
I ask leaders this question all the time. Most say yes. They use AI daily. They’ve integrated it into workflows. They see the productivity gains.
But here’s the problem: Most teams use AI to work faster, not smarter. They trade quality for speed without realizing the cost.
Becoming AI fluent isn’t about knowing the right prompts or tools. It’s about knowing when to trust AI and when to challenge it.
AI fluency means you can confidently understand, question, and make smart decisions around AI. Just like financial fluency. You don’t need to be an accountant, but you need to know enough to make wise decisions.
Think of AI like a magnifying glass. It amplifies everything. Your good thinking and your bad thinking. Your biases and your blind spots.
The faster you move, the harder it is to catch what you’re missing. This week, let’s explore the one skill that separates the 5% who are truly AI fluent from everyone else.

Test Your Intellectual Humility
Most people say they’re open-minded. They say they can admit when they don’t know something. On my intellectual humility quiz, people scored 4.36 out of 5.
But separating ideas from identity? That’s a different story. The score drops to 3.20. We struggle not to take things personally when people challenge our ideas.
The paradox: How can we change our minds when we’re attached to our own ideas?
What about you? Take the quiz and see where you stand.
