Product Owner München

# Navigate the AI hype successfully: Four essential questions that product owners and managers should ask themselves

ChatGPT is on everyone's lips and not a day goes by without a new AI tool being launched. Social networks are overflowing with posts about "Look what great things I've done with Midjourney or Bard or Dall-E again!" or "Here's my latest prompt engineering guide for AI tool xy..."
You ask yourself: "So what? What does all this have to do with me, my product and my company? It's great that I can use generative AI like ChatGPT as an idea generator to come up with an agenda for a workshop or to formulate a text from key points. But how am I supposed to use this seriously and profitably at our company and as part of my product? The protection of our data is sacred to us. As long as the answers are not explainable or comprehensible, we cannot trust them. Totally unrealistic in the legal, healthcare and financial sectors or anywhere else."

We think it's time to explore AI for product owners and product managers in an understandable and practical way. Our Meetup (in english) opens the door to exciting possibilities. Don't expect exaggerated promises, but realistic insights that will help you understand the value of AI for your work as a product owner.

That's what this event is about:

1. What exactly is AI (other than ChatGPT) and how does it work?
2. How can AI help me? What problems can I solve with AI, what added value can I generate for my product?
3. What are the limitations of AI (bias, lack of robustness, lack of transparency and hallucinations, data protection) and how can I overcome them?

4. How can I approach the topic of AI in a meaningful and (reasonably) structured way?)
