The Science Behind AISA
In 2026, Anthropic published the AI Fluency Index — the largest empirical study of AI fluency to date, analysing nearly 10,000 conversations. AISA covers 93% of the behaviours Anthropic identified as markers of AI fluency and goes even deeper with 4 additional dimensions. The U.S. Department of Labor's AI Literacy Framework (TEN 07-25) defines what every worker needs to know about AI — AISA covers 100% of its 25 sub-competencies.Read our analysis: Anthropic's AI Fluency Study & AISA · DOL AI Literacy Framework & AISA
AISA's framework is developed by a team with deep roots in tech, behavioural science, and AI product leadership — the rubric is informed by backgrounds spanning the Metropolitan Police, Harvard, Crowdbotics (Silicon Valley), and the European School of Economics.
