His example is AI. Scrum Masters are now asked to help teams where AI agents contribute to delivery, but no certification course can fully prepare us for that. Sheik's starting point is humility: say "I don't know," learn the domain, run small experiments, and reflect quickly. In one team, two human developers worked alongside several AI agents. They could not run a normal standup with Claude, so the team created a status report and reviewed it with the human team members. Sheik framed the agents as junior developers: useful, fast, and still requiring clear instructions, review, and guardrails. That framing helped experienced developers see AI collaboration as coaching and oversight, not as magic productivity. The key lesson is practical empiricism: try, inspect, adapt, and keep learning as the work changes.   In this episode, we refer to Scrumling's AI Product Owner course and the need to adapt Scrum practice to AI-enabled work.   Self-reflection Question: What new reality is your team facing where the honest Scrum Master answer should start with "I don't know yet"?   [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends] 🔥In the ruthless world of fintech, success isn't just about innovation—it's about coaching!🔥 Angela thought she was just there to coach a team.
