Microsoft & LinkedIn · 2024AI skills are becoming
part of the job.
Your experience still matters. Knowing how to use AI gives you another way to put it to work.
These are labor-market findings and employer expectations, not a forecast for your individual job. Being AI-capable means using AI thoughtfully, checking its work and knowing its limits.
You don’t need to become an AI expert.
You need to become AI-capable at what you’re already good at.
The marketer. The salesperson. The operator. The project manager. The analyst. The executive.
Your knowledge of the work is still the advantage. AI handles the draft. You own the review, the context, and the decision — that's the skill that makes you harder to replace.
Start with where you are.

Too many tools.
No clear starting point.
Every week there’s another AI model, tool or course telling you what you need to learn. It’s a lot to keep up with when you already have work to do. Or work to find.
You’ve tried it. It helped, sometimes. But it still feels like starting over every time you open a new chat.
You want to know which skills actually matter, where your gaps are, and what you could show a manager or an interviewer.

Preparing your personal snapshot…
Your seven skill scores and what they mean
0
Below 50: a place to focus your practice.
What the numbers mean
Each skill score reflects one self-assessment answer: 0 is new to this, 25 is exploring, 50 is practical use, 75 is testing and reviewing, and 100 is a repeatable approach. The seven areas have equal weight. Your overall score is their average, rounded.
Research and judgment below 50 take priority, then your lowest scores. Ties follow the skill order. Your role, goal and usage personalize the guidance; they do not change your score. Your overall score is a learning snapshot, not a hiring test or peer percentile. The workforce comparison below is based only on your reported usage frequency.

Free live workshop
Stop starting from scratch. Make AI useful at work.
In 60 minutes, we’ll work through one practical example in ChatGPT or Claude. Learn how to get useful drafts with less re-explaining, turn repeat work into a reusable skill, and show what your judgment added.
- Use ChatGPT or Claude.
- No coding. No new tools to chase.
- One method you can use again.
Alex Starr
Founder,
AI Capable Institute
Brings AI methods used with real teams to the work you do every day.
What you’ll do in 60 minutes.
- Stop re-explaining your workGive AI your role, context and standards once, so the next draft starts closer to what you need.
- Turn repeat work into a reusable skillSave the task’s instructions and review steps. Reuse them next week instead of prompting from scratch.
- Show more than “I use ChatGPT.”Show your manager what AI handled, what you checked and how you improved the result. Your judgment is part of the proof.
A self-reported learning snapshot, not a hiring test or a prediction about your career. Your next useful step matters more than getting to 100.
