How Anthropic’s product team moves faster than anyone else | Cat Wu (Head of Product, Claude Code)

Product management in an AI-native environment requires a fundamental shift from long-term, process-heavy roadmaps to rapid, weekly feature iteration. As coding becomes cheaper, the most valuable skill is "product taste"—the ability to decide what to build and how to prioritize based on first principles. At Anthropic, the PM role is increasingly amorphous, with engineers, designers, and PMs sharing responsibilities to remove barriers to shipping. Success hinges on delegating tedious tasks to AI agents like Claude Code and Co-work, allowing teams to focus on high-impact, delightful user experiences. By maintaining a clear, mission-driven focus on safe AGI, teams can navigate the chaos of constant model improvements, prioritize effectively, and maintain the velocity necessary to build products that push the boundaries of what is possible.
