AI Fluency
Introduction
The AI Fluency Assessment measures how a person works with AI in everyday work, in any role and with any AI tool. It covers the full cycle of AI use: deciding when to use it, getting useful results, checking what comes back, using it responsibly and turning the output into finished work.
It is the general layer of Bryq's AI skills assessments. Every role can take it, so its scores compare across your whole company. Role-specific assessments add to it for roles with their own AI risks.

Example Question
Below is an example question from the Beginner level, skill Prompting & Interaction Quality.
You want an AI assistant to write new product descriptions in the same style as your existing ones. What should you include in your prompt?
- One or two of your existing descriptions as examples, and a request to match their style and length. (best answer)
- A summary of your company's history, so the AI understands the brand before it starts writing.
- A request to write in a "good style," trusting the AI to choose a tone that suits your products.
- A list of words describing your preferred style, such as "friendly" and "concise," without examples.
Why this is the best answer: real examples show the AI the length, structure and wording to match. Words like "friendly" can be read in many different ways.
