PM AI PM Interview
(2026 Edition)
Interviewing for AI-first PM roles means being ready to discuss eval design for measuring chatbot quality, latency-versus-quality tradeoffs, prompt design constraints, agent tool-use failure modes, and AI pricing and unit economics — candidates prep by shipping a weekend LLM project, reading OpenAI and Anthropic safety blogs, practicing eval-set design aloud, and staying honest about model limitations rather than overselling capability.
