Beyond Product Management

Dinner Table Debates: Will AI Replace Product Managers?


Listen Later

In this special episode of Beyond Product Management, host Heather Miller is joined by a familiar voice—her husband and co-founder of PDRM Consulting, John Miller. Together, they dig into one of the most buzzed-about topics in both tech and product spaces: artificial intelligence.

Is AI going to replace product managers? Developers? Security professionals? Heather and John explore the real possibilities, the common misconceptions, and the risks—from hallucinated court cases to surprisingly accurate phishing emails.

You’ll hear:

  • Why AI won’t replace product managers—but PMs who use AI might replace those who don’t
  • The limitations of language models and why training data matters
  • How AI is transforming cybersecurity and development workflows
  • Where empathy, executive presence, and communication still reign supreme
  • Heather’s honest take on how AI has shifted her mindset (and saved her time on a church potluck!)
  • Why being “cautiously curious” is the best way to future-proof your tech career

Whether you’re still skeptical about using AI in your workflow or you’ve been testing prompts daily, this is the unfiltered conversation you didn’t know you needed.
