Talent density beats more headcount any day. Being part of a small team of talented people who share the same values and can take each other to the next level is what makes work fun.

No AI prototyping tool as far as I know has figured out how to create prototypes that consistently match a company's design system. There are companies that have figured this out internally but ideally this should be super simple to do directly via the tool.

What is agentic coding and how is it different from vibe coding? From Kieran (founder of Cora): "It's like I'm a manager and I have like a team of people that are very capable." 📌 Watch exactly how Kieran uses Claude Code and AI agents to build in our tutorial: youtu.be/Z_iWe6dyGzs

Thanks to AI, I’m feeling more productive than ever coding as a PM. But for some reason, engineers won’t accept the 3,000 line PR that Claude and I vibe coded. Anyone know why?

I think most people think better on a walk outside instead of staring at a computer screen at their desk. If you're not going on walks (and using AI voice dictation) to think you're missing out.

One of my pet peeves is getting tagged in a 30+ message Slack thread with no context. So I built an AI workflow that lets you react with an emoji (👀) to any thread and get a summary via DM in a few seconds. Subscribe to get the full tutorial tmr: creatoreconomy.so/

I see many interviewers post threads saying that candidates are using AI behind the scenes. Radical take: What if interviews required candidates to share their screen and show how they're using AI?

Fascinating inside look at OpenAI’s shipping culture: - Bottoms up - Bias for action rewarded over optics - Researchers seem like the center Written by an engineer who worked on Codex. A small team shipped that product in just 7 weeks (!). Link to article in next post.

Ok, if you're tired of companies calling every product an "AI agent" like I am, then you'll love my beginner-friendly deep dive on AI workflows vs agents. I cover the difference in simple terms and share practical examples of each. 📌 Sign up to get it in your inbox tmr: creatoreconomy.so/

ChatGPT helped someone figure out a 10+ year medical problem. I think everyone should set up an AI project with their health info to ask health-related questions. The more context you provide it the better, but starting with just a few bullet points still helps.

Me: "Hey, do you think we should do this?" AI: "You're absolutely right!" Me: "But what about this?" AI: "You're absolutely right!" Me: "Huh? Which path do you recommend?" AI: "You're absolutely right!"

If you want to become AI native, you have to be willing to try, tinker, and fail over and over. The people who get stuck are those who are waiting for someone to teach it to them.

A clear superpower for PMs and builders is being able to see their product from a new user's POV at any given time. So much UX and jargon that makes sense to a product team would be extremely confusing to new users. I have to remind myself about this all the time.

Gallup did a poll highlighting that AI adoption is growing rapidly amongst US workers. But only 8% are using AI daily as of June, 2025. And I bet that most people are only using ChatGPT.

"OpenAI has <30 PMs for 2,000+ staff - we want to show what it's like to build on top of AI." Nate Gonzalez is OpenAI's Head of Business Products. In my new interview, he reveals: 1. How OpenAI PMs use ChatGPT at work 2. What OpenAI looks for in PM hires 📌 Watch now: youtu.be/nwSxlrSbVqg
