Testing will be useful for your company if:
- you're not sure about your team progress: without regular testing, you might miss important insights about their learning
- you need to know if your education investments pay off: you spend money on learning, but you don't know if it helps your business
- HR team spends too much time arranging tests: during the performance review, people spend weeks organizing tests and can’t focus on the other tasks
- there's concern about subjective feedback: the info you get seems one-sided and based on personal opinions.

The phrasing of all subsequent questions includes the context of previous tasks, so if they are copied, for example, into ChatGPT, it might not understand or provide an answer disconnected from the context. Thus, obtaining a complete response using AI may take more time than writing the answer manually.
