AI-102 Practice Question: Implement natural language processing solutions
You are using Azure AI Language's question answering feature to build a bot that answers employee questions from a set of HR policy documents. You need to ensure the bot provides accurate answers and can handle follow-up questions. Which two actions should you take? (Choose two.)
⚠ Common exam trap
The trap here is assuming that raising the confidence threshold or adding more documents will improve accuracy and follow-up handling, when they can actually degrade the user experience.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Enable multi-turn extraction to create follow-up prompts for related questions.
To improve accuracy and handle follow-ups in question answering, you should add alternate questions to capture different phrasings and enable multi-turn extraction to create follow-up prompts. These actions directly enhance the bot's ability to understand varied user input and maintain context. Other options either reduce flexibility or do not address the specific needs.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Increase the confidence threshold to 90% to ensure only high-confidence answers are returned.
Why it's wrong here
Raising the confidence threshold may reduce incorrect answers but also causes the bot to fail to answer valid questions, leading to more 'no answer' responses. It does not improve the underlying model's accuracy or its ability to handle follow-ups. The threshold should be tuned based on testing, not arbitrarily set high.
- ✓
Enable multi-turn extraction to create follow-up prompts for related questions.
Why this is correct
Multi-turn extraction allows you to define follow-up prompts that guide the conversation, enabling the bot to ask clarifying questions or offer related answers. This is essential for handling follow-up questions and creating a more natural, interactive experience, especially for complex HR topics.
- ✗
Use the exact match only setting to ensure answers are precise.
Why it's wrong here
Exact match only restricts the bot to answering only when the user's query exactly matches a question, which is too rigid for natural language. It would cause many valid questions to go unanswered. This setting reduces flexibility and does not help with follow-up questions or overall accuracy.
- ✗
Add more source documents to the knowledge base to cover additional topics.
Why it's wrong here
Adding more documents increases coverage but does not directly improve accuracy for existing questions or enable follow-up handling. It could even introduce ambiguity if documents overlap. The question focuses on improving answer accuracy and follow-up capability, which are addressed by alternate questions and multi-turn prompts.
- ✓
Add alternate questions to each question-answer pair to cover different phrasings.
Why this is correct
Alternate questions improve the model's ability to match user queries that are phrased differently from the original question. By providing variations, you increase the likelihood that the bot retrieves the correct answer even when users ask in their own words, enhancing accuracy and user experience.
