What is FATE?

FATE — Fear of AI Transforming Everything — is not just a fear of artificial intelligence. That's been measured before. FATE is about the totality of transformation: the feeling that everything is changing at once.

Your job. Your children's future. Your relationships. Truth itself. The ground beneath every assumption you've ever held.

The name is deliberate. It connects to fate, to destiny, to the feeling of inevitability that many experience when confronting AI's trajectory. But here's the thing about FATE: it can shift. From dread to challenge. From paralysis to action.

"It's not a natural disaster. It's people with more powerful tools. There have to be solutions." — Dr Alberto Pertusa

The FATE–Love Scale

Two dimensions. Two scores. A complete picture of how you relate to the AI era.

FATE Score

0–100
  • Fear of AI itself
  • Fear of humans using AI

LOVE Score

0–100
  • Hope for humanity & society
  • Hope for yourself & family

The questionnaire has therapeutic value. Evaluating your own hope forces a proactive mindset — you can't answer questions about hope without beginning to feel it.

The Activist

Low fear, high hope. You see the risks but believe in humanity's ability to shape a better future.

😶

The Paralysed

High fear, low hope. The scale of change feels overwhelming and solutions feel out of reach.

🤔

The Cautious Optimist

Moderate fear, moderate hope. You hold both the worry and the possibility at once.

😐

The Disengaged

Low fear, low hope. AI doesn't feel relevant to your life — yet.
