Who is instructing the AI to make an application, fix bugs and issue updates? Is the customer doing all this or the manager taking time out of their day? Are either of those really fit to figure out whether the app actually meets what the customer needs?

Seems like the software engineering role is still needed at the higher level, and that would still likely require some sort of framework to help make sense of what the AI is generating, so you can instruct it accordingly.




75% of the time PMs don’t know or understand what the customer wants or needs either; at least an LLM roleplaying aa a product-owner would have been trained on a corpus including research-output on product-development and usability.
