The primary difference is that AI Product Managers lead the development of new AI features, systems, or models for a company. For example, an AI PM at Internshala will lead the development of an AI assistant that answers commonly asked user questions while creating a profile on Internshala. While these product managers don&#8217;t write code themselves, they are the ones who decide how AI products are built and launched. It involves identifying how AI can be leveraged to enhance a product and establishing strategies to develop and integrate AI features seamlessly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>i. Key Skills Required<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though AI product managers don\u2019t require programming skills, they should have a strong understanding of AI and Machine Learning. Here are the key skills an AI product manager should have:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Strong knowledge of AI\/ML basics<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Product roadmap planning &amp; strategy<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Communication and leadership<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Market analysis and user experience knowledge<br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ii.

AI Consultant&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Just as management consultants help businesses make informed decisions, AI consultants assist companies in understanding how AI can enhance their operations and drive value. They identify where and how AI can be applied to reduce costs, automate processes to improve efficiency, and increase revenue. For example, an AI consultant would advise Walmart to utilize AI for demand forecasting or a bank to implement AI-driven fraud detection.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AI consultants don\u2019t build the systems themselves; instead, they design the strategy and collaborate with engineers and developers to execute it. To become an AI consultant, you should have a broad knowledge of AI and Machine Learning. Internshala\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/trainings.internshala.com\/artificial-intelligence-and-machine-learning-course\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">AI &amp; ML course<\/a> can help you learn the basic tools, framework, and libraries required for the job.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>i. Key Skills Required<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An AI consultant needs more than just AI &amp; ML skills; they also need strong business acumen and client handling skills.
