1. What problem does AI primarily solve in OKR tracking?

   1. It replaces the need for human goal-setting entirely
   2. It automatically assigns OKRs to team members
   3. It predicts whether objectives will be achieved
   4. It eliminates the friction that causes tracking to fall behind

2. Which outcome is NOT something AI can achieve through OKR tracking alone?

   1. Surfacing risks and dependencies
   2. Ensuring actual goal achievement
   3. Aggregating progress signals from multiple systems
   4. Generating automated status updates

3. In the context of AI-assisted OKR tracking, what is meant by 'progress signal aggregation'?

   1. Collecting and combining data about OKR progress from various operational systems
   2. Calculating employee performance scores automatically
   3. Notifying team members about missed deadlines
   4. A process where AI decides which goals to prioritize

4. Why must owner authority be preserved when designing AI for OKR tracking?

   1. To comply with legal requirements for performance reviews
   2. To prevent the AI from becoming too expensive to maintain
   3. To ensure the AI system receives credit for results
   4. Because substantive judgments about goal achievement require human decision-making

5. Which of the following is explicitly listed as a design consideration for AI OKR tracking?

   1. Integrating with the existing planning cadence
   2. Replacing quarterly planning meetings
   3. Automating all goal-setting decisions
   4. Eliminating the need for status reports

6. What does AI generate in OKR tracking that comes from underlying data?

   1. Financial budgets for the next quarter
   2. New OKRs for teams to pursue
   3. Employee performance reviews
   4. Status updates reflecting current progress

7. Which capability represents what AI does WELL in OKR tracking?

   1. Creating strategic objectives from scratch
   2. Guaranteeing that all OKRs will be met
   3. Replacing human accountability for results
   4. Identifying risks and dependencies that need attention

8. What type of outcomes should be measured when implementing AI for OKR tracking?

   1. The number of OKRs created by AI
   2. Technical system performance metrics
   3. Only the accuracy of AI predictions
   4. Alignment outcomes between teams and company goals

9. What is the primary function of status reporting in OKR tracking?

   1. To replace one-on-one meetings
   2. To communicate current progress toward objectives
   3. To assign blame for missed targets
   4. To formally approve goal changes

10. Why might OKR tracking fall behind without AI assistance?

    1. Because employees lack motivation
    2. Because OKRs are too complex
    3. Due to friction in manual tracking processes
    4. Due to too much automation

11. When designing AI for OKR tracking, what role do operational systems play?

    1. They are unnecessary if AI is implemented
    2. They only store historical data
    3. They are replaced by the AI system
    4. They are sources of progress signals that AI can aggregate

12. What risk exists if organizations rely solely on AI tracking without human engagement?

    1. Budgets will decrease
    2. The AI system might become too expensive
    3. Tracking may become an end in itself rather than a means to achievement
    4. Teams will become dependent on technology

13. What is required to measure alignment outcomes in AI-assisted OKR tracking?

    1. AutomaticOKR generation by AI
    2. Defined metrics for how well team objectives support company goals
    3. Replacement of all manual planning processes
    4. A direct connection to company bank accounts

14. Which statement best reflects the lesson's view on AI's role in OKR success?

    1. AI eliminates the need for any human involvement
    2. AI tracking is the primary driver of OKR success
    3. AI tracking supports success but cannot guarantee it
    4. OKRs are unnecessary if AI tracking is implemented

15. What happens to owner accountability when AI is introduced to OKR tracking?

    1. It remains with the human owner
    2. It is shared between AI and owners equally
    3. It is transferred to the AI system
    4. It is eliminated automatically
