How is the Quick Score scored?

You get one point for every yes, so your total runs from 0 to 15. A score of 0 to 5 means AI is sitting idle: nearly everything it could take off your plate is still on yours. A score of 6 to 10 means AI is a part-time intern: it handles the small stuff when you remember to call it, and you still carry the work. A score of 11 to 15 means AI is full-time staff: it runs work you used to do yourself, and you check the output, not the process.
