Abstract
The emerging dominance of AI in the perception of skills-of-the-future makes assessing AI skills necessary to help guide learning. Creating an assessment of AI skills poses some new challenges. We examine those from the point of view of washback, and exemplify using two exploration studies conducted with 9th grade students.
