Path Steps

Follow these steps in order. Each one links to an EasyDNNnews article/video and gives you a quick, practical takeaway.

1
Step 1: What AI can (and can’t) do for Scrum Teams
You’ll learn how to frame AI as a teammate that supports Scrum events and backlog work without replacing judgment or collaboration.
Do this exercise: Write a 3-sentence “AI usage policy” for your team (what you will use AI for, what you won’t, and what must be reviewed by a human).
2
Step 2: Prompts that produce better user stories
You’ll learn repeatable prompt patterns to generate stories with clearer intent, constraints, and acceptance criteria.
Do this exercise: Take one messy request and prompt AI to produce (a) a user story, (b) 5 acceptance criteria, and (c) 3 key questions for the PO.
4
Step 4: Sprint planning acceleration
You’ll learn how to generate “plan options” (not commitments) and improve shared understanding of scope and dependencies.
Do this exercise: Ask AI for 2 sprint goal options based on your top backlog items, then pick one as a team and adjust wording together.
6
Step 6: Sprint review & retro prompts that uncover truth
You’ll learn facilitation prompts that help teams extract insights, turn feedback into actions, and avoid “retro theatre.”
Do this exercise: Feed AI 5 bullet facts from the sprint and ask for (a) patterns, (b) 3 improvement experiments, and (c) 1 metric per experiment.
8
Step 8: Make it stick—your team’s AI working agreement
You’ll learn how to convert your best prompts and practices into a lightweight working agreement the team can actually follow.
Do this exercise: Create a “Prompt Library” page with 5 prompts: refinement, story writing, planning, review, retro—each with input/output examples.

Step 1: What AI Can (and Can’t) Do for Scrum Teams

AI is a productivity amplifier—not a Product Owner, not a Scrum Master, and not a Developer.

Used correctly, it accelerates learning, drafting, summarizing, and exploring options. Used poorly, it replaces thinking with automation theater.

This step helps your team position AI as a supporting teammate, not a decision-maker.

Step 2: Prompts That Produce Better User Stories

AI can help—but only if the prompt is structured.

This step introduces repeatable prompt patterns that improve:

  • Intent clarity

  • Constraints visibility

  • Acceptance criteria quality

  • PO alignment

Step 3: Backlog Refinement with AI (Without Losing the “Why”)

The Core Risk

When teams use AI in refinement, a common failure mode appears:

  • Stories get cleaner

  • Acceptance criteria get longer

  • Technical detail increases

  • Business intent becomes less visible

Scrum optimizes for value delivery, not documentation density.

AI must support the “why” behind the work.

Step 4: Sprint Planning Acceleration

The Key Principle

AI should propose:

  • Possible Sprint Goals

  • Possible scope groupings

  • Possible dependency flags

The team still decides:

  • What to commit to

  • What fits capacity

  • What aligns to product strategy

AI drafts.
The team commits.
