Keeping AI on Mission for More Reliable Software Delivery

AI is showing up in nearly every tool we use, but for product managers, it’s not always clear where it actually helps versus where it just gets in the way. Join us for our next Lean BYTES where Staff Product Manager, Jodi Jones, will walk through specific ways she’s using AI to get things done faster — from drafting stories to pulling together research and stakeholder communication.

AI is moving fast — and so is the pressure to figure out where it actually fits in your organization. Whether you’re actively exploring use cases or just trying to separate real progress from all the noise, the hardest part is knowing where to start. What’s working today?

And often, organizations don’t realize the full impact until it’s too late.
