Spot where product decisions can get stuck as AI changes the pace of work.
Revisit which decisions are owned and made by Product, Engineering, and Design as their responsibilities evolve.
Evaluate whether AI is improving customer outcomes and helping your team make better product decisions, not just speeding up delivery.
