PM/ Strategy roles AI safe?
I'm a software engineer with very little knowledge of what pms and strategy people do but whatever the level gpt might achieve in future, it may make coding jobs redundant but I believe product roles would still be
safe

I feel given the way PMs are working in many (not all) they should be the first ones to get axed. Designs, copy writing, research, program management even writing PRDs takes a major chunk of PMs day work atleast upto couple of levels which is all possible with AI chatbots and tools. Hence, I feel every PM should upskill to ensure AI is a tool they master rather than something which can master the product

Countering your points:
- Product designers design. PMs review and finalize the design.
- AI better copywriter - agreed but that's the small chunk of pm's JD.
- Research - not sure what you wanted to convey here. If it was product research and finding gap in market, I don't think AI can do that.
- Program managers take care of program management not Product Managers.
- AI Getting better at writing PRDs - I don't think that's gonna happen, atleast anytime soon.

@Pumpkin I am not countering your point but giving example of what I am referring to. In my current company,
I do design where Dalle can help and use chatgpt for copy writing.
Ask questions on chatgpt on industry context for strategy documents. Program management required for Stakeholder alignment.
I do ask chatgpt to share user stories for certain scenarios.

I don't think PM roles are safer than sde when it comes to AI not to mention chatgpt doesn't do leetcode properly. So leetcode monkeys are going to be ok too

[Hot Take] AI will make SWEs redundant, PMs and Marketers will become the most important job
It’s clear that companies won’t need engineers 10 years from now.
They’ll just need people who know what to make. Who to sell to. How to sell to. At what price.
This will be the great commoditization of Software development

No more product managers, is it for real?
I have GPT4 subscription which does 30% of my job. I believe with time it has potential to do 80% of product managers’ job. A company will be able to work equally efficiently with 2 PMs instead of 6.
This will increase unemployment an...
