The rapid development of AI technologies has resulted in diverse interactions between users and AI systems. This paper introduces an AI User Archetype Model, classifying users based on their AI literacy, engagement levels, motivations, and governance. The model provides a structured approach to understanding users’ behavior, enabling the design of AI systems that align with user needs and enhance AI democratization. The archetypes include The Sage, The Warrior, The Creator, The Producer, and others, each representing a unique combination of these dimensions. This model can be used to optimize AI product design, inform AI education strategies, and guide policy-making for more inclusive AI development.
