Improved project definition, planning, and reporting with the help of AI and ML.
Introduction of virtual project assistants or "bots" to aid in project management tasks.
Advanced testing systems and software to detect defects and reduce rework.
A new role for project managers, focusing on soft skills and strategic thinking.
