AI Literacy Test

AI literacy is not about knowing every model name or feature. It is about using AI tools with sound judgment: knowing what to trust, what to double-check, and what never to paste into a chat window.

Quick answer

The Ainanza AI literacy test measures responsible, judgment-driven AI use: verification habits, privacy awareness, and recognizing safe versus unsafe everyday AI use, alongside the basic AI concepts that judgment depends on.

Who this is for

Built for employees and teams who use AI tools at work and want to confirm they are using them safely, not just efficiently. It is also a reasonable baseline for a team or classroom that wants everyone starting from the same understanding.

What this covers

  • Distinguishing safe and unsafe everyday AI use
  • Avoiding careless sharing of private or confidential information
  • Recognizing when to verify an AI answer before relying on it
  • Understanding the limits of what AI can responsibly decide
  • Everyday terminology needed to follow AI-related workplace policy

Recommended starting point: AAI-1: AI Foundations (20 questions, ~20 min).

Sample question

This is one standalone example, not part of the real question bank. The full assessment includes single-choice, multiple-choice, fill-in-the-blank, matching, ordering, scenario, and other question formats.

Before pasting a customer's full contact details into a public AI chatbot to draft a reply, what should you do first?

  • Paste it as-is, since the chatbot is only there to help you write faster
  • Remove or replace identifying details, or use an approved internal tool instead Correct
  • Ask the AI to keep the information confidential
  • Nothing, public AI tools are safe for any company data

Why: Public AI tools should not receive private or confidential information unless your organization has explicitly approved that use. Removing identifying details, or switching to an approved internal tool, avoids the privacy risk entirely.

How scoring works

AAI-1 requires a 70% overall score and a 60% minimum specifically on safety-related questions, so a passing result reflects both AI knowledge and judgment, not just knowledge.

See the full competency framework for exact passing scores, safety minimums, and badge prerequisites for every level.
