John Carroll University

AI Opportunity-Cost Lab

Before you lean on AI for a task, weigh what it saves against what it displaces — in both directions. Time, skill, voice, dignity, empathy. Then decide.

Why this matters

A tool for discernment about concrete AI choices. This lab helps you use AI tools well while protecting human capacities and dignity. You make the call. It just makes the value of each choice clear.
