After a single 60-minute AI retro, participants reported 34% greater alignment on how and when to use AI, 15% better understanding of AI's role in priorities, and increased confidence. The format involves four steps: anchoring discussion in real work examples, making AI learning social by sharing both wins and failures, building a living shared AI use-case document, and ending with one small specific AI commitment per person. 82% of participants learned a new AI use case during the session. The approach requires no new meetings—just adapting an existing retro cadence. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
