Yes, Product Ops is becoming an established role in the product team. It is VERY difficult to predict what will happen with Product Ops in the coming years!
I've personally experienced Trend #1 and #5 over the past 6 months. Product marketing at our company has moved from under commercialization to product and we've updated almost every process to better improve the PM-PMM relationship. I've additionally been quite involved with AI Governance and can see the benefits of PMs focusing more on ethics broadly--simply relegating that to security, privacy, and/or legal dismisses an opportunity for product managers to have meaningful impacts beyond the monetary. Great list of predictions!
Excellent list, Amy! I’d like to add Product Ops. I’ve been seeing a real trend there recently.

Benedikt / Amy - Have you all read that new Melissa Perri Product Operations book yet? I was thinking about checking it out.
I haven't read it yet. I enjoy her writing though!
Not yet, but it’s on the list!

I've seen similar trends in my job too. I found it interesting that other predictions for the year ahead see similar signs.
