A product manager at Anthropic shares how exponentially improving AI models are reshaping the PM role. Using Claude Code as a central example, the post describes a shift from long-term roadmaps to short sprint cycles, prototype-first thinking, and side quests. Key lessons include revisiting shipped features with each new model release, avoiding clever workarounds that become technical debt, and optimizing for capability before cost. The author also outlines a three-tool workflow (Claude.ai, Claude Code, Cowork) and notes that roles across the team are blending as AI lowers the barrier to building.
