Answers to common questions about The AI Readiness Challenge by Lexarius.

About The AI Readiness Challenge

What is The AI Readiness Challenge?

The AI Readiness Challenge by Lexarius is a short, free conversation with an AI career advisor about your own role and how you would work with AI. You answer the questions in your own words, handle the follow-up questions, and then receive a report on what your answers showed.

Who is The AI Readiness Challenge for?

The AI Readiness Challenge is for anyone who works, in any role or industry. It suits people who use AI every day as well as people who are only starting to use it. You do not need any technical knowledge to take part.

Do I need to know about AI before taking The AI Readiness Challenge?

No, you do not need to know about AI first. The AI Readiness Challenge is not a technical AI interview or conversation, and you are not expected to know specialist terms or tools. Answer as you would in a real conversation, using your own experience and explaining how you would approach things you have not come across before.

How long does The AI Readiness Challenge take?

The conversation lasts up to 10 minutes, but you can choose to keep it shorter if you prefer. After the conversation, there is a short feedback form that takes about a minute to complete.

Is The AI Readiness Challenge really free?

Yes, The AI Readiness Challenge is free. Both the conversation and your full report are free of charge.

Is The AI Readiness Challenge a test? Will I pass or fail?

No, The AI Readiness Challenge is not a test. It is a practice conversation, and there is no pass mark. Your report shows which areas your answers covered clearly and which areas you could build on.

Is The AI Readiness Challenge coaching or career advice?

No, The AI Readiness Challenge is not coaching or career advice. It is a practice conversation followed by a reflective report. It does not promise that you will be ready for anything, and it is not a substitute for professional career, HR or legal advice.

Will The AI Readiness Challenge make me ready for the AI era?

The AI Readiness Challenge gives you practice and a clear read of how you explained your thinking during the conversation. It cannot guarantee any outcome.

My job has nothing to do with technology. Is The AI Readiness Challenge still for me?

Yes, The AI Readiness Challenge is still for you. The questions are about how you would approach your own work alongside AI, whether you design, build, teach, sell, make or manage.

Who am I talking to in The AI Readiness Challenge?

You are talking to an AI interviewer, not a real person. You will be able to select a persona before you begin the conversation.

During the conversation

What will I be asked during The AI Readiness Challenge?

What if I do not know the answer to a question?

If you do not know the answer, say so, then explain how you would go about finding out or deciding. You are not expected to know everything, and no special terms are needed.

Do I need to prepare for The AI Readiness Challenge?

No, you do not need to prepare. It can help to think for a moment about your role and what you want next, but there is nothing you need to study.

What is the timer on screen during the conversation?

The interviewer talked over me or interrupted me. What should I do?

If the AI interviewer talks over you or interrupts you, pause briefly and then continue. If it happens repeatedly, please contact support so we can look into it.

The interviewer misheard me, or I have an accent it struggles with. What should I do?

If the AI interviewer mishears you, repeat or rephrase your point. Your report reflects what the system captured, so say important points again if you think they were missed.

Do I have to answer every question?

No, you do not have to answer every question. You can decline to share something, but please note that the report can only reflect what you actually discussed.

Should I use real details about my job?

You can describe your role in general terms. Please avoid sharing confidential employer or client information, or anyone else's personal data.

I am a student, between jobs, or not working right now. Can I still take The AI Readiness Challenge?

Your results and report

When do I see my results?

You will see your results right after the conversation. Completing a short feedback form unlocks your full report.

Why is there a form before the full report?

The form helps us learn about you so that we can share upcoming AI roleplays that might interest you. It takes about a minute to complete. Your report is free and does not depend on your answers to the form.

Do I have to tick the opt-in box to get my report?

No, you do not have to tick the opt-in box to get your report. Opting in to future communications from us is optional.

What do Achieved and Not achieved mean in my report?

Achieved and Not achieved show whether your answers in this one conversation clearly covered each objective. Not achieved usually means the topic was not covered in enough detail, not that you lack the skill.

How accurate is my result?

Your result reflects what came up in one short conversation and is generated by AI. It is a practice read, not a formal assessment or certification, and it should not be used for hiring or performance decisions.

I disagree with my result. What can I do?

That is fine. You can retake the conversation using Try Again, or tell us what you think using Share Feedback.

Is my result compared with other people's results?

No, your result is not compared with other people's results. Your results are a reflection of your own conversation only.

Can I download or save my report?

You can email your report to yourself or to others.

Can my employer see my report?

No, your employer cannot see your report through The AI Readiness Challenge unless you share it with them yourself.

Do I get a certificate for completing The AI Readiness Challenge?

No, you do not get a certificate. The AI Readiness Challenge is not a certification.

Accessibility and language

I have a hearing impairment. Are there captions or a transcript?

Both Audio Only mode and Video Mode in The AI Readiness Challenge rely on speech.

I have a speech difficulty, a stammer, or I speak slowly. Can I still take part?

Yes, you can still take part in The AI Readiness Challenge. Take your time, and use as many words as you need.

English is not my first language. Can I still take The AI Readiness Challenge?

Yes. You do not need any special vocabulary, and plain language is fine.

I find speaking to an AI or a camera stressful. What can I do?

Choose Audio Only mode, find a quiet spot, and remember that The AI Readiness Challenge is practice. There is nothing to prepare, and no one is watching in real time.
