Unlike a generic product manager, the AI PM requires fluency in model capabilities, evaluation, and agentic system design, and owns AI-specific risks (hallucination, eval-driven release gates, model and vendor tradeoffs) rather than pure feature delivery. Distinctness from generic PM is the main review question for this emerging-roles catalogue.
