What you'll learn

Do you really need an AI PM? What do they do?

Understand when this role is essential and when it might be unnecessary. Can traditional PMs suffice?

What is their role relative to AI Engineers?

Who should be responsible for writing evals? How do they compliment engineers in ways that are specific to AI?

How does AI assisted development and vibe coding fit in?

If everyone can code, can you collapse engineering & PM into one role? Can AI obviate different roles?

What role does data literacy & analysis play?

PM roles are often complimented with data analyst/scientists for decision making. Is this different w/AI?

Why this topic matters

With AI becoming central to product development, organizations are rushing to create "AI PM" roles. In this candid session, Bryan and Hamel will interview Aman to cut through the hype and explore what AI PMs actually do, when this role is truly needed, and how to structure effective collaboration with AI engineers.
