1. What is the failure mode AI helps fix in UX readouts?

   1. Findings get praised and then ignored
   2. Findings are too statistically rigorous
   3. Researchers refuse to share findings
   4. Findings are too short

2. How does AI usefully reframe a finding?

   1. As a confidence interval
   2. As a story arc
   3. As a quote-rich slide
   4. As a forced choice with tiered recommendations and an owner

3. What does Tier 1 in a three-tier recommendation typically describe?

   1. A quick fix that ships this sprint and addresses the surface symptom
   2. A research follow-up
   3. A staffing change
   4. A strategic roadmap shift

4. Why does the action tracker beat the slide deck as the artifact?

   1. It is easier to email
   2. It is shorter
   3. It carries the names and dates that make decisions stick
   4. It removes the researcher from accountability

5. What can AI NOT do in this workflow?

   1. Draft three recommendation tiers
   2. Force PMs to actually take ownership
   3. Format a one-page action tracker
   4. Reframe findings as decisions

6. You ran 5 interviews. AI produces a polished readout. What is the integrity move?

   1. Present it as statistically significant
   2. Add three more interviews after the fact
   3. Be honest about sample size and call findings hypotheses
   4. Omit the sample size

7. What does a Tier 3 recommendation usually require?

   1. A sprint
   2. A bug fix
   3. A roadmap negotiation because it changes the underlying model
   4. A copy edit

8. Why is the researcher described as a decision broker?

   1. They make all decisions themselves
   2. They orchestrate forced choices and ownership rather than narrate
   3. They run the sprint
   4. They write the code

9. What separates a useful finding from a vanity finding?

   1. Length of the readout
   2. Number of quotes
   3. Slide design
   4. Whether a named owner walks out with it

10. A PM nods along but commits to nothing. What does the structure require?

    1. Schedule a follow-up readout
    2. Email the findings later
    3. Assign the decision before the meeting ends
    4. Defer to engineering

11. Why does AI struggle to make readouts succeed on its own?

    1. It cannot force ownership in a room of humans
    2. It cannot format trackers
    3. It cannot summarize interviews
    4. It cannot draft recommendations

12. Which finding framing is strongest?

    1. Many users mentioned the dashboard
    2. Users seemed confused about the dashboard
    3. The dashboard scored 3.2 on a 5-point scale
    4. Decision: simplify the dashboard header (Tier 1) — owner: Priya, due Friday

13. What risk does sample-size theater create?

    1. Increased research budget
    2. False confidence that drives wrong roadmap bets
    3. Slower meetings
    4. Better designed slides

14. Why include three tiers rather than a single recommendation?

    1. It lets the room negotiate effort against ambition with eyes open
    2. It satisfies engineering
    3. It pads the deck
    4. It hides the real recommendation

15. Which artifact best signals a healthy readout culture?

    1. A signed approval form
    2. A short action tracker with names and dates that gets revisited weekly
    3. A long slide deck archived in the wiki
    4. A high attendance count
