Narrative violation: Anthropic's Head of Growth says we'll need more PMs, not fewer.
"While PMs and designers are getting leverage from AI, engineering is getting the most leverage right now."
I tried to kill PM, but @AnthropicAI is hiring more of them.

PMs are building APIs and prototyping in Claude instead of
