Module overview — The Role of the AI Product Manager

Module overview — The Role of the AI Product Manager Goal : Compare the trade-offs of a classic product manager and an AI product manager, then spot the decisions of a job that require AI expertise. Study time : Durée d'étude : 3 h Prerequisites : no prerequisites Running thread : Camila, in São Paulo. Camila has been a product manager for four years at a mobile payment app in São Paulo. A Brazilian fintech has just posted an AI product manager job, and she hesitates to apply: the duties look like her job, but a few lines talk about error thresholds, data and models.

Workshop: job self-diagnosis What you will be able to do : - Compare the trade-offs of a classic product manager and an AI product manager on the same type of feature - Calculate the expected monthly number of errors from a volume and an error rate - Name, for a product, the dominant source of uncertainty among the five: model, data, usage, cost, trust - Classify the duties of a job posting between classic decisions and decisions requiring AI expertise End-of-module questions (Answer in writing, with figures.) : 1. With 10,000 transactions a month and 8 percent errors, how many errors must your team plan to handle? Give a number. 2. Among the six duties of the job posting studied, how many require AI expertise? Give a number. 3. What are the five sources of uncertainty specific to an AI product? List them. 4. In your current or target job, how many decisions depend on the behavior of a model? Give a number.
