| Item | PSM-AI cue |
|---|---|
| Provider | Scrum.org |
| Exam | Professional Scrum Master - AI Essentials |
| Format focus | 20 questions in 45 minutes |
| Practice behavior | choose AI use that is useful, ethical, secure, and consistent with Scrum Master accountability |
| PM Mastery status | live practice available |
| Area | What to know | Common trap |
|---|---|---|
| AI theory | generative AI, prediction, prompts, limitations, hallucination, and human review | treating AI output as authoritative |
| Security and ethics | confidential data, bias, fairness, transparency, privacy, and approved-tool use | pasting real sensitive work data for convenience |
| Scrum Master use cases | facilitation prep, impediment analysis, retrospective ideas, coaching support, and communication drafts | letting AI replace team inspection and adaptation |
| Prompting | goal, role, context, constraints, examples, output format, and review criteria | asking vague prompts and accepting vague output |
| Scrum accountability | AI supports human judgment; the Scrum Master and team remain accountable | outsourcing Scrum decisions to generated advice |
For every PSM-AI miss, ask whether the issue was data safety, prompt design, Scrum accountability, ethical risk, or Scrum Master stance. If you keep selecting convenience answers, slow down and check privacy, transparency, and team ownership first.
