Terms of Use.

Effective October 19, 2026

Pace or Pause is an independent editorial project about the pace of advanced AI. These terms cover this website, its quiz, and its share cards.

Read in context

Our categories are editorial interpretations of public evidence, not rankings, endorsements, or complete descriptions of anyone’s views. Read qualifications, dates, and original sources alongside each assessment. Views and evidence can change; corrections follow our Methodology. Being featured does not imply participation, affiliation, or approval.

Quiz results reflect your answers and our scoring method. They are educational, not validated psychological assessments or professional advice. Do not use them to make employment, education, credit, or other consequential decisions about anyone.

Quiz participation

You can see your result without contributing data. Contributions require an age of 18 or older and separate consent. Submit only your own responses; do not fabricate repeated entries or use automation to distort findings. Our Privacy Policy explains collection, deletion, and who operates the project. Using the site does not itself consent to contribution.

Sharing and responsible use

You may link to pages, share generated cards with their attribution intact, and quote reasonable excerpts of our original writing with credit and a link. Preserve qualifications and do not misrepresent altered material as ours or imply endorsement. These permissions cover only rights we hold; photographs, quotations, trademarks, and other third-party material remain subject to their owners’ rights. Fair use and other rights provided by law remain unaffected.

Do not violate others’ rights, impersonate people, submit malicious code, attempt unauthorized access, bypass access controls, or disrupt the site. Automated access must not impose an unreasonable load. We may restrict misuse or change or discontinue features.

Corrections and rights concerns

Email help@paceorpause.com with the page URL, the concern, and supporting evidence. Send only material you have authority to share. We may use it to investigate, respond, and correct the site; this does not grant permission to publish private correspondence. Third-party links and services have their own terms and privacy practices.

Limitations and updates

The site is provided “as is” and “as available,” without guarantees of accuracy, completeness, or uninterrupted availability. To the extent permitted by law, we disclaim implied warranties and liability for indirect or consequential losses. These limitations do not exclude fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence, or rights and liabilities that cannot legally be excluded.

California law governs these terms, subject to mandatory protections where you live. We will date updates and give prominent notice of material changes, seeking agreement where required. Changes do not retroactively alter existing disputes. Nothing here waives mandatory consumer or privacy rights.
