Any product manager worth their salt should be in a coding interface--the line between Product and Engineering is blurring a lot more now, and to stay competitive PMs will need to reach a little further into the technicalities. Otherwise you risk just being another “idea guy” pushing tickets around, basically customer support on steroids which is getting eaten by Agents. Connecting the ideas to something tangible and translatable that an Agent could not do themselves is the new game.

(I am a PM of 15 years trying to navigate all of this…)
