The AI Meter — AI & You · Jefferson Academy

Try a preset situation — or set your own:

Adjust to match your situation

Each slider represents something real about how you used AI. Move them honestly.

You tried it yourself first

Did you make an honest attempt before going to AI?

You understand the topic

Could you explain what AI told you in your own words?

You checked AI's work

Did you think critically about what AI said, or just accept it?

You used your own words

Did you rewrite and rethink it, or copy-paste?

AI doing the thinking You doing the thinking

Class discussion

Which slider moved the result the most? Why do you think that is?
Is there a combination of settings where AI use is clearly fine — and one where it clearly is not?
What is a situation in your own classes where it would be easy to slide into "AI doing the thinking"?
Can you picture a time when an assignment called for brain-only work? What about one where AI support would genuinely help?
