As AI lowers the barrier to execution, the skills that matter most for product managers are distinctly human. Drawing on lessons from Jessica Fain’s appearance on Lenny’s Podcast, this post explores how PMs can master influence, build executive trust, and drive strategic alignment.

We traded airports for trains and chased saunas across Europe. Amsterdam’s waterfront spa charmed us, Hamburg felt luxurious, Berlin’s Bauhaus gloom underwhelmed, and Leipzig stole the show with unlimited towels and proper relaxation vibes. More cities to come!

“Vibe coding” with Google’s Antigravity makes app building accessible, prioritizing creativity over technical skill. While it handles setup and fosters learning, it isn’t a silver bullet: debugging is tough, and code quality varies. It’s excellent for prototyping but doesn’t replace the need for proper engineering in serious products.

This blog post discusses product delight, defining it as the intersection of joy and surprise. Using Nesrine Changuel’s framework, it highlights how Claude’s “Imagine” feature exemplifies this by removing friction, anticipating user needs, and exceeding expectations, thereby creating a delightful and creative experience for its users.

ChatGPT’s new shopping feature could redefine how we buy online. While Google’s advertising relies on clear keyword bidding, ChatGPT’s product suggestions stem from its own algorithmic choices. This introduces important concerns regarding user trust and how the AI will generate revenue. Can an artificial intelligence truly offer unbiased recommendations while also earning commissions? The resolution to this dilemma might significantly alter the landscape of online consumer purchasing.

I’ve been exploring AI creative tools like VEO3, discovering how they’re democratising creativity by letting anyone bring their ideas to life in minutes rather than years of training. While questions about authenticity and artistry remain, I’m excited about a future where these tools amplify human creativity rather than replace it, giving everyone the power to express themselves regardless of their technical skills.

Google’s new Storybook feature in Gemini offers an impressively quick way to generate personalised 10-page illustrated children’s books with narration, making it a valuable tool for parents and educators to create stories that help children navigate challenges or simply enjoy bedtime tales.

No-code tools and AI like Claude are revolutionising product development, shifting focus from “how to build” to “what to build” while challenging traditional engineering roles.
