Question 1
An organization is collecting data to train a generative AI model for customer service. They want to ensure security throughout the ML lifecycle. What is a critical consideration at this stage?
A. Applying the latest software patches to the AI model on a regular basis.
B. Monitoring the AI model’s performance for unexpected outputs and potential errors.
C. Establishing ethical guidelines for AI model responses to ensure fairness and avoid harm.
D. Implementing access controls and protecting sensitive information within the training data.
Show Answer
Correct Answer: D
Explanation: During the data collection and training stage of the ML lifecycle, a primary security concern is protecting the training data. This includes implementing access controls, safeguarding sensitive information such as PII, and preventing unauthorized access or data leakage. The other options correspond to later lifecycle activities (patching, model monitoring) or AI governance/ethics rather than the core security consideration at data collection.
Question 2
An order fulfillment team has an agent that automatically processes orders, updates inventory, sends shipping notifications, and handles returns. What type of agent is this?
A. A conversational agent
B. A customer service agent
C. An employee productivity agent
D. A workflow agent
Show Answer
Correct Answer: D
Explanation: A workflow agent automates end-to-end business processes across multiple systems. Processing orders, updating inventory, sending shipping notifications, and handling returns are coordinated operational tasks that define a workflow agent.
Question 3
A company trains a generative AI model designed to classify customer feedback as positive, negative, or neutral. However, the training dataset disproportionately includes feedback from a specific demographic and uses outdated language norms that don’t reflect current customer communication styles. When the model is deployed, it shows a strong bias in its sentiment analysis for new customer feedback, misclassifying reviews from underrepresented demographics and struggling to understand current slang or phrasing. What type of model limitation is this?
A. Edge case
B. Data dependency
C. Hallucination
D. Overfitting
Show Answer
Correct Answer: B
Explanation: The limitation described is data dependency. The model's performance is constrained by the quality, representativeness, and recency of its training data. A dataset skewed toward one demographic introduces bias, and outdated language causes poor generalization to current slang and phrasing. This is not primarily an edge case, hallucination, or overfitting.
Question 4
A finance team wants to use Gemma to help with daily tasks so that the financial analysts can focus on other work. Which business problem can Gemma most efficiently address?
A. The struggle to accurately extract key financial figures and insights from a variety of document formats, such as balance sheets and income statements, for quick reporting.
B. The complexity of building and deploying sophisticated internal knowledge bases to answer employees’ finance-related questions with accurate and up-to-date information.
C. The difficulty in analyzing large datasets of financial transactions and market data to identify anomalies and predict future financial performance.
D. The challenge of efficiently producing high-quality written summaries and initial drafts of financial communications.
Show Answer
Correct Answer: D
Explanation: Gemma is a lightweight generative language model best suited for natural language tasks such as drafting, summarizing, and rewriting text. Producing high-quality written summaries and initial drafts of financial communications is a direct application. The other options either require specialized document extraction pipelines (A), retrieval-augmented knowledge base systems (B), or advanced predictive analytics over large financial datasets (C), which are not Gemma's primary strength.
Question 5
What does a diffusion model do?
A. Generates high-quality content by refining noise into structured data.
B. Facilitates the storage and management of structured data.
C. Analyzes data and predicts future trends and patterns.
D. Optimizes business processes and resource allocation.
Show Answer
Correct Answer: A
Explanation: Diffusion models are generative AI models that start from random noise and iteratively denoise it to produce structured outputs such as images, audio, or other data. The other options describe database management, predictive analytics, or business optimization rather than diffusion models.
Question 6
An organization wants to quickly experiment with different Gemini models and parameters for content creation without a complex setup. What service should the organization use for this initial exploration?
A. Vertex AI Studio
B. Vertex AI Prediction
C. Google AI Studio
D. Gemini for Google Workspace
Show Answer
Correct Answer: C
Explanation: Google AI Studio is intended for rapid experimentation and prototyping with Gemini models and prompt parameters with minimal setup. Vertex AI Studio is part of the broader Vertex AI platform for enterprise and production workflows, while Vertex AI Prediction serves deployed models and Gemini for Google Workspace is an end-user productivity offering.
Question 7
A company collects customer feedback through open-ended survey questions where customers can write detailed responses in their own words, such as “The product was easy to use, and the customer support was excellent, but the delivery took longer than expected.” What type of data is this?
A. Quantitative data
B. Structured data
C. Labeled data
D. Unstructured data
Show Answer
Correct Answer: D
Explanation: Open-ended survey responses are free-form natural language text without a predefined schema, making them unstructured data. They are not inherently quantitative, structured, or labeled.
Question 8
A company is developing a generative AI application to analyze customer feedback collected through online surveys. Stakeholders are concerned about potential privacy risks associated with this data, as the feedback contains personally identifiable information. They need to mitigate these risks before using the data to train the AI model. What action should the company prioritize?
A. Focusing on collecting only quantitative feedback data in future surveys.
B. Implementing strong access controls to limit which teams can view the raw survey data.
C. Ensuring that the AI model is trained on a large and diverse dataset.
D. Applying data anonymization techniques to remove or obscure sensitive data
Show Answer
Correct Answer: D
Explanation: The priority is to reduce privacy risk in data containing personally identifiable information before it is used for model training. Applying data anonymization or de-identification techniques removes or obscures sensitive identifiers, directly addressing that risk. Access controls are important but do not eliminate PII from the training data, and the other options do not mitigate the existing privacy concern.
Question 9
A company is using a language model to solve complex customer service inquiries. For a particular issue, the prompt includes the following instructions:
“To address this customer’s problem, we should first identify the core issue they are experiencing. Then we need to check if there are any known solutions or workarounds in our knowledge base. If a solution exists, we should clearly explain it to the customer. If not, we might need to escalate the issue to a specialist. Following these steps will help us provide a comprehensive and helpful response. Now, given the customer’s message: ‘My order hasn’t arrived, and the tracking number shows no updates for a week,’ what should be the next step in resolving this?”
What type of prompting is this?
A. Few-shot
B. Chain-of-thought
C. Role-based
D. Zero-shot
Show Answer
Correct Answer: B
Explanation: The prompt provides explicit intermediate reasoning steps (identify the issue, check the knowledge base, decide between explaining a solution or escalating) before applying them to the customer's case. This is characteristic of chain-of-thought prompting because it guides the model through a reasoning process rather than only giving examples (few-shot), assigning a persona (role-based), or simply asking a task without examples or reasoning guidance (zero-shot).
Question 10
A company is developing a generative AI-powered customer support chatbot. They want to ensure the chatbot can answer a wide range of customer questions accurately, even those related to recently updated product information not present in the model’s original training data. What is a key benefit of implementing retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) in this chatbot?
A. RAG will significantly reduce the computational resources required to run the generative AI model.
B. RAG will enable the chatbot to fine-tune its underlying language model on the fly based on customer interactions.
C. RAG will enable the chatbot to access and utilize external, up-to-date knowledge sources to provide more accurate and relevant answers.
D. RAG will primarily help the chatbot generate more creative and engaging conversational responses.
Show Answer
Correct Answer: C
Explanation: Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) improves responses by retrieving relevant information from external knowledge sources at inference time and using that context to generate answers. This allows the chatbot to use current product documentation and other updated information without retraining or fine-tuning the underlying model. It does not primarily reduce compute, perform on-the-fly fine-tuning, or focus on creativity.
