Burnt-out PMs: applied AI collapses the feedback loop from days to minutes
brandon_galang · x · 2026-09-14
The author argues PM burnout stems not from workload but from the distance between your inputs and what ships—80% of time spent translating, aligning, and writing tickets while changes rot in backlogs. In applied AI, that distance collapses to zero: you write the logic, run agents over messy data, see where it breaks, tweak the spec, and ship the same day, turning a slow feedback loop into minutes and delivering daily wins.
