Your number will differ
The baseline above assumes average habits and no protective signals. Your industry, routine share, AI fluency and skills like i have built or shipped an ai/llm-powered feature, i use ai tools (copilot, chatgpt, claude) in my daily work, deep domain expertise (finance, health, legal, industrial…), security skills (appsec, compliance, zero-trust) can move the score substantially in either direction.
