Product Management in the AI Era

The role of a product manager in software engineering is often a little murky – defined more by influence without Authority than rigid roles and responsibilities. A PM’s success is often measured by their ability to successfully guide software engineering development towards user benefit and business outcomes. In this era of AI, where software products can increasingly be prototyped, built, and even launched with much less code written, the rule of the Product Manager is even more important.

Please join Eve Andersson as she hosts Christine Robson, a product leader who spent nearly a decade building and leading Google’s first Machine Learning Product Management team and worked to redefine Product Management at Google.
