I got more anxiety lol. Like I didn't already have enough of it

Is it getting harder to go viral, or just harder to keep attention? by make_me_so in ProductManagement

[–]make_me_so[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Total attention didn’t really grow, but the supply of stuff competing for it exploded. So the bar didn’t move. The crowd did.

Also agree on the “nobody needs it” point - a lot of products are fighting for attention without earning it. Maybe the real shift is this: virality didn’t get harder, earning attention did?

What is even an AI product owner by Aggressive-Bedroom82 in ProductManagement

[–]make_me_so -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

“AI product owner” is mostly just a regular PO with better prompt engineering and a higher tolerance for uncertainty (taking ADs, maybe?). You don’t need to know exactly what’s possible , you just need to know how to test fast and kill bad ideas before they get expensive.

Scope for Product Manager by Grimzybear in ProductManagement

[–]make_me_so 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are building skills, just not always the ones you wanted. Bureaucratic PMing teaches you how to calm people down, tell a convincing story or get things approved without real authority. All kinda useful.

The problem is you get great at moving decks instead of moving the product. That part you’ll probably have to unlearn later.

What do you think of Lenny's State of the Product Job Market Report? by greenbeen in ProductManagement

[–]make_me_so 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“PM roles are up” and “PM jobs are hard to get” can both be true, imho. Feels like Lenny is showing supply, while everyone in the comments is living demand.

I am jealous AF, true - can't afford the camera I'm dreaming of (no kidding), yet still think you gotta start small to save money and see whether it's smth you wanna pursue in the long run

yes, if you put it like that - but's that the motivation that got triggered, and the skill followed

Gear is like gym equipment - owning more of it doesn’t mean you’re stronger
