A product manager sits down on Monday morning with a familiar problem.
Three customers are asking for the same feature. Sales says the request is blocking two enterprise deals. Engineering estimates six weeks of work.
Customer success says the real problem is not the missing feature at all, but a broken workflow around it.
The product manager opens the backlog and sees thirty-seven other things competing for attention.
This is the job.
Not writing requirements. Not moving tickets across a board. Not deciding whether a button should be blue or green.
The difficult part has always been making sense of incomplete evidence and deciding what deserves to exist.
Artificial intelligence does not remove that problem.
It makes it bigger.
