Deep dives
Analyzing Decline in Chat GPT's Usage
To diagnose the decline in Chat GPT's usage, PMs should start by segmenting users and analyzing trend data. By investigating specific user segments or broader trends, they can identify shifts in usage patterns. Surveying users or conducting qualitative research can provide insights into declining usage across different segments. Additionally, considering macroeconomic conditions, competitor actions, and potential performance issues can offer a holistic view of the situation.
Utilizing AI Products and Technologies
PMs can leverage AI products for cognitive tasks, allowing more time for intricate problem-solving. Understanding customer problems, linking AI solutions to business outcomes, and ensuring continuous improvement are essential. Embracing AI tools like generative AI models while focusing on user needs and mitigating risks are key priorities for PMs.
Evolution of the PM Role with AGI
As artificial general intelligence (AGI) advances, PM roles will shift to emphasize leveraging AI technologies. PMs who adapt to AI and AGI advancements will excel, replacing those who do not. The role will focus on complex problem-solving, leading to fewer managers and more senior individual contributors. Companies may experiment with new PM setups and structures to accommodate the AI-driven evolution.
Maximizing AI Tools and Enhancing PM Roles
AI tools like large language models (LLMs) offer PMs opportunities for cognitive tasks and data-driven decision-making. Traditional PM roles will evolve to incorporate AI technologies effectively. By understanding user needs, handling AI risks, and aligning with strategic priorities, PMs can enhance their impact in the AI landscape.
