Try a sample question
An AI writing feature impresses in demos, but real users rarely keep its output. What should you measure first?
- How many demos the sales team runs
- How many tokens the feature uses
- How many users clicked the AI button once
- How often users keep or lightly edit the output, broken down by task
Show the answer
D. How often users keep or lightly edit the output, broken down by task — Acceptance of output shows whether the AI is delivering value. Breaking it down by task reveals where it falls short. The real test has 20 questions like this.
