AI can automate research, analyze customer feedback, and accelerate product development, but Product Managers are still needed to define product vision, make strategic trade-offs, prioritize customer needs, and align business, technology, and design teams. As AI-powered products become mainstream, demand for skilled Product Managers is expected to grow even further.
