Why this topic matters
Most AI PM roles posted right now aren’t at AI labs. They’re at companies adding AI to a product that already has users. The people hiring aren’t testing whether you know agent architecture. They’re testing whether you can judge where AI belongs in their users’ workflow, and where it doesn’t. A Google product leader told me she’s hiring for domain expertise. A resume full of “led AI initiatives” answers a question nobody in that room is asking.
