Keep these — they’re yours
Deepen your moat
Exposure figures are indicative estimates of what today’s AI tools can largely do — not predictions about your job. The human moats are Daniel’s framework: a lens, not a law.
Behind the test
What machines make abundant changes what humans must cultivate.
When competent output becomes cheap, the scarce things shift. This test looks at both sides: how much of your current week AI can already do, and how deep your human moats run — taste, judgment, trust, agency and IRL connection.
It’s the framework from Daniel’s keynote The Human Moats, and a starting point for his hands-on AI workshops.
