AI assistants are creating a dangerous illusion in modern software: they often sound intelligent, confident, and helpful even when the answer is incomplete, ungrounded, misleading, or simply wrong. That creates a new quality challenge for QA leaders. Traditional pass/fail testing was built for deterministic systems, where one input should produce one expected result. AI does not behave that way.
In this session, we will explore how QA must evolve from validating fixed outputs to evaluating answer quality, trust, and evidence. Using a practical and leadership-focused framework, we will break down how to assess AI responses across dimensions such as relevance, groundedness, completeness, safety, retrieval quality, and consistency. We will also examine why many AI failures are not obvious bugs, but convincing responses that quietly damage trust.
Attendees will leave with a practical QA leader’s model for evaluating AI answers beyond pass/fail, identifying where AI systems really fail, and building better release confidence for AI-powered products.

I’m Mahathee. I work as a Project Lead Quality with Persistent Systems in Hyderabad, India. Apart from actively testing products I love to share my knowledge by attending conferences and meetups, networking with people, learning from them, reflecting on my learnings and applying them at work. I have been an active member of various testing communities like The Test Tribe, Testchat, Agile Testing Alliance, Ministry of Testing, Synapse QA etc. I also like mentoring junior testers. I’m an active person and always keep myself abreast with the latest happenings in the industry. Some topics close to my heart are accessibility, usability and the aspect of testability. In my spare time, I volunteer with the test tribe and conduct their meetups in my city. I encourage fellow testers to participate in these events and share their knowledge as they have helped me grow immensely as a tester.
