An Artificial Intelligence (AI) transformation is also undergoing a transformation to Software Project Management (SPM), which is equipped with intelligent frameworks that are data-driven and, thus, enhance planning, execution, monitoring, and control across the project lifecycle. The paper presents AI-based strategies, including AI-based Agile frameworks, AI-based DevOps/MLOps integration, smart Decision Support System (DSS) and automatic resource optimization. These models are based on machine learning (ML), predictive analytics, natural language processing (NLP), and real-time monitoring systems to improve the process of the sprint planning, foreseeing risks, cost estimation, and work of the teams. Anomaly detection systems and AI-enabled dashboards assist the proactive decision-making, and MLOps ensure the reliability of the models and ability to be scaled and to meet the governance requirements. The other point that the paper has highlighted is the use of AI in initiation, planning, execution, monitoring, and closure phases which are advantageous in regard to enhanced forecasting accuracy, resource optimization, augmented productivity, and knowledge retention. Even though the opportunities are extremely high, the problems of high-cost implementation, privacy of data, resistance to change and integration challenges have to be addressed to maximize the transformative potential of AI within the framework of contemporary software project environments.
