Question 1
Multiple choice
Domain 1 / Task 1.3 Apply generative AI concepts
Regional sales directors use an approved assistant to summarize account notes before customer meetings. The summaries change shape from one run to the next, and some add assumptions that are not in the notes. The team asks for a more capable model. What should the strategist recommend first?
Show answerHide answer
Answer: A
Why
Prompt quality is the first and cheapest lever. Stating the audience, the format and the rule to use only the supplied notes targets both problems, and a reviewed template keeps every director's summaries consistent.
Why not the others
BRaises cost without fixing the instructions. Try a better prompt first, and change the model only if that falls short.
CCosts more and needs curated examples. Try the prompt first.
DA larger window adds capacity, and nothing suggests the notes are being cut off.
Domain 2 / Task 2.1 Strategies aligned to objectives
A freight company wants an assistant that drafts customer quotes from its own pricing history and contract terms, which is where it differs from competitors. It has no AI engineers, has never put an AI system into production, and wants the assistant live in two quarters. Which approach fits best?
Show answerHide answer
Answer: C
Why
A partner fits a capability gap, a first production deployment and a need to accelerate. Building on managed models keeps the company's own data as the differentiator, and planned knowledge transfer leaves the skills in-house.
Why not the others
ASuits common needs. Standard features and settings would not put the company's pricing history and contract terms to work.
BTypically the costliest route, and it needs ML skills this company does not have.
DMisses the two-quarter target. A partner can supply the missing skills now and transfer them to the company.
The board asks a newly formed AI governance committee which AI systems the company runs, who owns each one and how risky each is. No one can answer. What should the committee put in place?
Show answerHide answer
Answer: A
Why
Governance runs on an inventory of every AI system with its owner, risk class, data and review date. Risk classification, lifecycle gates and periodic reviews all depend on it.
Why not the others
BMisses systems built in-house, and records no owners or risk classes.
CStops new work but leaves the existing, unknown systems unmanaged.
DA center of excellence shares standards and reusable assets. Rebuilding every system would not show who owns each one or how risky it is.
A readiness assessment at a water utility finds that most field-operations staff have little AI fluency, and there is no program for continual learning. In the AWS Cloud Adoption Framework for AI (CAF-AI), which perspective covers this gap?
Show answerHide answer
Answer: D
Why
The People perspective covers talent, AI fluency and a culture of continual learning, so a staff skills gap is a People gap.
Why not the others
ACovers AI strategy, product management and value.
BCovers responsible use of AI, risk and the cost of scaling.
CCovers the enterprise AI platform, not staff skills.
An insurer gave its claims handlers an approved assistant that summarizes claim files. After some early errors, handlers now re-read every file in full, and the time savings have disappeared. Which two leadership actions best address this barrier? Choose two.
Show answerHide answer
Answers: B and E
Why
The barrier is distrust of outputs. Leaders answer it with transparency about the assistant's limits, a feedback channel and visible fixes, while keeping a human in the loop.
Why not the others
AEnforcement does nothing to rebuild trust in the summaries.
CHides the limits instead of being open about them.
DRemoves the human check on claim files instead of rebuilding trust in the summaries.
