When a Project Manager Met AI

Project managers juggle a lot. Deadlines, dashboards, daily standups and more caffeine than legally advisable. But what happens when automation joins the team?

In this video, we follow a Project Manager’s surprisingly relatable journey through the world of AI and automation.

You’ll meet:

  • RPA – bots that handle repetitive, rule-based tasks like reminders and emails without ever complaining.
  • Intelligent Automation – RPA with AI that learns patterns, predicts risks and identifies what to automate next.
  • Generative AI – tools that write better reports, emails and summaries than most of us.
  • AI Agents – AI interns that act on goals, plan tasks and even delegate work.
  • AGI – the concept of AI that could think and learn like humans across any task.

We also touch on Moravec’s Paradox – the odd truth that AI excels at complex logic but struggles with simple human skills.
